MRM vs Feminism

• Feminists actively oppose the existence of men's groups on university campuses and elsewhere. The reverse is not true.
• Feminists actively disrupt MRM meetings. The reverse is not true.
• Feminists insist that men's problems should be addressed through feminism. The reverse is not true.
• Feminists insist that DV/IPV is almost exclusively men being violent towards women. MRAs argue that both men and women can be perpetrators and victims of DV/IPV.
• Feminists want to stop violence against women. MRAs want to stop violence against everyone.
• Feminism insists in the responsibility of men to stop domestic violence. MRAs argue the responsibility rests with everyone.
• Feminists normally avoid reading men's rights sites and books, describing it as a hate movement. This is a convenient rationalisation to allow them to avoid having their preconceived notions challenged. In contrast, most MRAs regularly read feminist sites and books.
• MRAs are committed to free speech.
• Feminism is tied up with postmodernism.
• Feminism is intolerant of alternative viewpoints. The MRM embraces diversity of thought and accepts alternative viewpoints.
• When selecting leaders feminism selects for extremists while the MRM selects against it. In feminism, extremists percolate to the top of feminism.
