This is intended to a pledge for MRAs to take. It will not require the person to engage in activism and it will not reference feminism directly, since not all MRAs are anti-feminists. It will however specifically reference and reject major feminist doctrines.

I believe that society should properly address problems facing men and boys

I wish to allow all people equality of opportunity regardless of their gender

I reject male disposability

Technological advances and the growth of the human population mean that we no longer need to recover numbers very quickly. As a result we no longer need men to sacrifice themselves to guarantee the survival of women.

I reject the claim that men historically engaged in the systematic oppression of women

I reject the claim that violence is a trait inate to men and masculunity

I reject the ridicule and vilification of masculinity prevalent in modern society

I rejection violence as a tool for political or social change

All too often MRAs are accused of engaging in violence when this is simply not true. If is in fact opponents of the MRM who routinely engage in violence against MRAs simply expressing their opinions.
