Yes! That's what feminism was always about. It's just being twisted mostly by incel men, and by a few greedy women. But that touches on the main problem with humanity. For thousands of years now the wealthy elite have used bigotry to divide us and pit us against each other. All for their own power, profit, and even entertainment. Bigotry in all of it's various forms, is the root cause of nearly all of humanities self-imposed problems.

If that's all you are capable of communicating (or you're afraid to say it because you know it's just bigotry), then it's far more likely to be actual fact that *you* are the one who is reaching, and reaching really hard too. Either way, yours is a comment born purely out of fear. Have the courage to say what you think, or admit you're not thinking.

Men are drafted to die in wars while women stay home and bake cookies. Men earn more but women spend more. Men are the majority of suicides, homeless and incarcerated. Shot by cops proves BLM is right? Men are 20 times more likely to be shot by cops than women are. And to really add insult to injury, the media, government, Hollywood and universities are endorsing a hate movement (the thing you call 'feminism') aimed at men. Trust me, men feel the gender inequality.

In addition, women as drivers have more prejudice than men, even if males do more dangerous mistakes which cause accidents. And now I am not talking about fight for vote right and education that existed many years ago. Women are allowed to be pretty, but not smart. And when I talk about these issues with males, they usually answer:"What is the problem?". That's why I am saying that men don't understand what inequality means.

I think gender should prescribe how u should be according to abilities that are biologically unique to ur gender that the other gender doesn’t have 🗿(I hope I articulated myself well there) Example : generally speaking men are physically stronger than women thus the role of the “protector” will suite men better especially in romantic relationships, families etc.
