Do men care about feminism ?

Question

Should they care at all ?

Answer 1

Nope, unless we're talking about ending Women's sufferage, then I'm all ears

Answer 2

nope

Answer 3

I think some do. In all fairness, they should care, because they should have enough respect for women to listen to what they have to say.

Do I agree with radical feminist? No.

Do I think radical feminist or feminists who won't shut up about it deserve the time of day? No.

I'm a woman. I don't preach that my s*x is denied any rights or opportunities. I think you get more respect by working as hard as everyone else or harder and proving your s*x doesn't matter. I work hard, prove that I deserve to hang with the boys, and do just fine. I'm respected by my male friends and coworkers and that's enough for me.

I don't expect any hand outs or favoritism for being a girl. I think guys respect that.

Answer 4

I care about equal rights but they have gone too far.  Who cares about my son?  What does he have to look forward to but a Nazified country?

Should we care? Sure, they are n***s.

Answer 5

Yes, because feminism is about equality for the women.  Anybody with any decency or care would support their cause and be right behind them.

And by the by, I am a man.

Answer 6

Not at all.

It's the whining and hypocrisy that annoys ME.

Answer 7

Sure I care.  I care about the rights women may not have, and I also care when feminism is limiting rights of men like myself.  I can see both sides of things.

Answer 8

Yes they do. They should, like doodlebugjim pointed out.

Answer 9

Most men care about the fair treatment and equal rights of women.  

That being said, for the sake of self-preservation men must  worry about   feminism as a serious threat .  In most of Western civilization women's rights have been meted out and then some.  Men's rights are not so slowly or subtly being leached .

Answer 10

We should because it is a major threat to all men, normal women, and kids worldwide.

Answer 11

We should, because it is threat to all humanity. Like naziism was.

Answer 12

We have to care. Its called self-preservation: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?...

Answer 13

I don't. There are more interesting things in the world.

Answer 14

I'm all for equal opportunity, but I believe feminism is a destructive force.

I care, but in a bad way, like I care about crime or pollution.

Answer 15

Men should care. It effects them too. You cannot say that these mothers going to work and leaving their children in day care doesn't effect their men. Have you ever stopped to think that it is also these men's children just as much as it is their wife's? If the husband wants his wife to stay home and take care of their children, why does he never get heard? When it comes to the well being of his children, he should get as equal of say in their raising as the wife does.

Answer 16

i sure dont do women care about male chauvinism? do black people care about racist? no these people are just left alone for being so hateful

Answer 17

They should care and be more active it fighting it!! Feminism has destroyed the work place for men. Its confused family life and what roles moms and dads are supposed to fulfill, the result is a ton of screwed up kids in America. And its ruined TV and movies, how many shows can you think of where the husband is a buffoon and the wife knows everything and treats him like an idiot??

If I were a man I would be pissed and fighting tooth and nail o reverse this c**p that feminism has puked up on the world!!!

Answer 18

Most men's ego won't let them care.

Answer 19

I only care about people who butt out of my business.  I care about people who don't make up labels and hide behind them.

Answer 20

How about this?  Do men care if their daughter can't get into her chosen university because she's female?  Do they care if she becomes a dentist but is forced to charge less than the male dentist down the hall even though she's just as good?  Do they care if she makes a mistake and dies during the abortion?

Of course men care....they're just freaked out by extremists.

Answer 21

I care when I get involved and a feminist wants conditional equal treatment.

If I'm out at a bar, and a feminist is going to fight me, and she's told me she's a feminist, I'll fight her like any man.  She wants equal treatment, she's got it.

But if I don't see any sexism against men occurring, I don't really care.

Answer 22

Yes. Our society is the outgrowth of our historical past.  Our historical past includes societal conditions of domination of men over women, the enslavement of white over black.  Feminism helps show the injustice of making women secondary citizens to men.  Feminism explains how society took the false opinion that men were better/more capable than women in all the "important" areas of life, and subsequently approved a society that gave men a greater role in that society than their talents deserved.

As a man who cares about the health of our nation and our society, who has a sense of justice, equality, and rightness, feminism helps explain how our historical misconception of the genders continually recreates individuals who take for granted that inequalities in the social makeup of gender equal the inequalites between the capabilities of the sexes.  Just as blacks don't deserve to be treated as second class citizens because we "misjudged" their abilities in the past, women do not deserve to be treated as second class citizens.  Much of feminism can help bring about a better understanding of the relations between the genders, and therefore lead to a more just and productful society.  Feminism can help mitigate the engrained but false gender inequalites of the past that still perpetuate our society today.

Answer 23

Yeah, we need to keep it from doing any more damage.
