Why are guys so angry over feminism? Why get all mad when women ask for equal rights? Some men seem to feel that women keep asking for more and more concessions. They feel like they keep giving us stuff but we’re never happy.
All we want is equality
What these men don’t seem to understand is that we’re NOT asking for gifts. We want equality. And we are very far away from that right now. If you want to see the numbers, check out my webpage and read my white paper here.
Women want what men have always understood to be their right: to work at a job we love and get recognition for good performance in the form of raises and promotions. We don’t want to get stuck under a glass ceiling, or be penalized for having children.
Supporting a family requires two incomes for the vast majority of the population, especially in big cities such as New York and Los Angeles. A man can’t support a wife and children on his income alone unless he is very wealthy. Those days are over and women have moved on—but it seems like some men have not.
Some men still dream of the nuclear family that never existed anywhere except late-twentieth century sitcoms, and then get angry when their real relationships with real women don’t match up. Why are guys so angry about treating women like people? Some men seem to have a disconnection between the ways they treat women they know—their mothers, sisters, and daughters—and women they meet in the workplace.
They don’t seem to understand that if they terrorize female interns at work, it opens the door for their daughters to be treated the same way.
Watch this short video I recorded so you can better understand where I am coming from. I’m saying this over and over again… we’re very far from achieving the true meaning of equality. What can you do to help? I would love to hear your thoughts about this. Share it below.
The Golden Rule
The key to anger management in this case is something they should have learned in kindergarten: the Golden Rule. Treat other people as you wish to be treated. Take some personal responsibility for your actions and be aware of how they affect others. Opening troll accounts to post nasty comments on my videos does nothing productive and just makes you look bitter and overly sensitive.

Well there are many of us good single men nowadays that are looking for a good woman to have a very serious relationship with, and unfortunately we keep meeting these very pathetic loser feminist women all the time that are so very nasty too many of us men for No Reason as well. Feminism is the cancer of our society today, and most of these women are the real cause of it.
Women’s worst enemy is that they are often never satisfied or appreciate what they have. They want more with less effort = Feminism! If a woman can perform as much as a man, she can have the exact same as a man. If she can’t perform, she can’t have the same as a man.
By nature women are evil. Just give the a lot of money and see them change. It is simply not good for a woman to have the same resources like a man. She can’t handle it and will get evil in the end. I have seen it many times.
If feminism was love men would love it as well! Unfortunately it isn’t.
That’s a pretty horrible statement to make and reflects one thing only: our personal opinion. Needless to say that it leaves me saddened to see that there will not be a loving functioning relationship in your future if this is what you believe in. I am not a big fan of blanket statements. There are horrible, abusive, mean and vindictive men. And there are horrible, abusive, mean and vindictive women. Equally there are wonderful men as there are wonderful women. If you truly think that women are evil I can’t imagine you in a functioning relationship. If I ask you does like attract like – would that give you something to contemplate?
It has been my experience all life. Even from my own mom, my dad’s new wife, my sisters to all the women I thought I had a “loving” relationship with. It had made me angry at feminism, and in my age of 44 I have decided only to interact with women at a minimum to protect myself, and it will be like that till the end of my life. It will be hard, but I know better things are coming. I have an opinion based on my personal experience in life, every time someone tried to convince me that I was wrong, I was betrayed in the end. Do you understand my anger towards feminism?
Wow. Statement of a neanderthal from the lost age. Please, kindly cease to exist so the rest of us dont catch your lame disease.
Lmao it’s crazy to see all these men whining about feminism and then making misogynistic comments in the process. You are why feminism still exists. You can’t talk that way about women and expect them to just sit there and take it. They will rail against it. If you don’t want feminism to exist, stop being a sexist POS.
Most acts of evil are done by men, by the way. Most murder, assaults, theft, rape, torture, genocide, slavery, war.
But women get mean sometimes and they are the true evil ones? Ok bud. Go touch some grass. Idk when this comment was made but I guarantee you can still benefit from just leaving your house.
“I am not a big fan blank statements.” You just spent 8 minutes saying men are…men do…men this and men that. Then you gaslight at the end about, well you had a bad relationship or don’t get laid. Because you know men are when they don’t get laid. I’m not sure how you fail to see how hypocritical you come across. Your whole video was a blanket statement, concluded with, well if a man is angry it’s because he can’t get laid. Wow. Do you even watch your videos before you post them?
I am in the video, so yes I know what I am saying. And neither the video nor the article said men are only angry at women when they don’t get laid. You said that.
All of these angry men in the comments, wheeeew. Just because you guys have experienced bad things in your life where women were apart of it, doesn’t mean it applies to every single woman on the planet. Misandry and feminism are not synonyms. A woman asking for equal pay and respect is not misandry. Women correcting you, being afraid to walk alone, and not taking men’s BS is not misandry. However, saying “feminism is evil and a cancer on our society” is actually saying “believing that women and men should have equal rights is threatening and scary because I’m used to being in full control of my life” is misogyny.
Its very obvious from all the comments and feminism or what some women’s right’s call the “upper class women’s club” how out of touch many feminist are of not only how many men feel and have been treated but also many lower class women feel too. There is a reason why more and more women are walking away from feminism. Only 1 in 5 women identify as a feminist reduced from 1 in 3 a few years ago. Not because women don’t want equality, but feminists too often say one things and do another, and how rude and manipulative they are too other women, and are determined to ignore their own misogyny toward other women. This manifests itself when they bully lower class women or apply “the stupid common women who don’t understand feminist properly”. If the person who wrote this article took the trouble to actually listen to other people than making such delusional judgements then we could understand each other. Feminism in practice is too often run by man hating and women hating bigots, who are very damaged people, more about disempowering women and encouraging female entitlement not equality, alongside being driven by hated of men. This is evidence is term like “toxic masculinity” but ignore healthy masculinary, while promoting healthy feminity but ignore “toxic feminity”, before I am accused of heresy by feminist. Most women want nothing to do with feminism and how feminism has destroyed women’s mental health and relationships causing more harm than good, and based on very unrealistic expectations and wanting constant perfect, turning women against men and men against women and woman against other women by this sort of competition. This doesn’t help as the toxic marxist control it and feminist movement gets a lot of money by weakening women and attacking men, but refuses to be made accountable and teaches many women to avoid responsibility. It equallly creates a us vs them and competition than working together and refuses to listen to anyone, controlled by arrogant private school know it alls. So this post is very ignorant as to why men don’t want to have anything to do with feminism. Not because they hate women but because how many feminists behave.. “toxic feminism” not unlike british colonists and are very good at lying too and making exaggerated claims. The harm it has caused society for past 40 years is something. Most strong women don’t call themselves feminist for a reason than the whiny, pathetic, feminists with victim complexes and projecting lies and conspiracy theories and refuse to be made accountable anyone. To feminists its always someone else fault, never taking any responsibility for their own behaviour or any sense of fairness. Thats why are a corrupt busness designed to weaken women and get money from it!
That was a mouthful or accusations and assumptions. The idea that there is something as an umbrella term of ‘feminists’ who are all thinking and doing the same is ridiculous. You don’t speak for women who are ok to use the term feminist and you don’t speak for those who don’t like the term but are still for equal treatment. The only person you can speak for is yourself. When I give an example of liking an orange inevitably I will be accused of discriminating against apples, or God forbid cherries, because they never get mentioned. When an article focuses on one topic it is because that is the topic of that article, nothing else.
Who are all these men angry about feminism? A few incels and Proud Boy idiots? I’m male and I consider myself a feminist. I may fall short at times, but I work to support, empower and empathize with my spouse, female friends and colleagues — but nothing about feminism, or anyone adopting even fringe feminism ideas, makes me or men I know “angry.” I recognize women are under institutional assault in many areas right now. The author makes a strong point about caddish men failing to connect women in their family with women they encounter in the world. The overly-generalized premise of the piece assumes false tension and antagonism between the genders and puts people like me into narrative we don’t want to be part of — that we are all the oppressor borg. Anti-feminists can — and have — painted feminists with an ridiculously large, false brush as bra-burning, anti-family, etc. Feminists should not turn around to do the same — to allies, nonetheless.
You are absolutely correct David and I wished I could address all these nuances in every post. I have to pick one viewpoint. I do agree that the broad strokes don’t work and will do my best to improve. Thank you for your feedback.
