  1. If it hasn't shown up yet, it probably will.

    Feminism started because early on in this country's development, women had no real rights.  They had a "place" and they weren't supposed to leave that place.  But many women felt they had the right, and were going to fight for it.  Thus feminism was born.

    Since men did really have the rights already in this country, there was no reason for "masculinism."  Black men did have fewer rights, but they didn't fight for their rights on the basis that they were of the masculine gender.  If they had been white they would have had those rights.  So they fought on the basis that black people should have the same rights.  

    But nowadays, many men feel like they are losing rights.  They may feel they gave away too many and now they have no say.  Whether that is true or not I don't know.  But many men feel that way based on their perspective.  So I wouldn't be surprised if a masculinism movement eventually began as a counter to feminism.

    But as far as I know, it hasn't happened yet.


  2. hahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhaha

    sorry, but dis is funny!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. Feminism is based on the ideal that one's gender does not dictate what one's interest or abilities are. Therefore, it does not need a counterpart. A person who advocates non traditional roles for a male who is suited for them is also a feminist.

  4. Since feminism is a false condition I have to say a male equivalent is not possible.
