Isn't the MRA/MRM or whatever just reverse feminism anyway?
No. Feminism has never actually been about equality because it never advocated for equal responsibility. At best it's one giant **** test stemming from Apex Fallacy.
Case in point, the Equal Rights Amendment in the US would have fixed all that, but when women realized they'd be liable to be drafted they turned around and squashed it. Just recently the National Organization of Women found out states were putting forward bills that would fix alimony laws and give parents equal time with their kids, so they organized and did there best to prevent those bills from passing into law. Feminists overseas saw to it that paternity testing is against the law in some places, eg France.
The feminist mantra that women were oppressed and men were the oppressors is pure unadulterated hogwash. Both men AND women were oppressed by the few who were in power. The only difference was in how the two genders were oppressed and downtrodden. Feminists have this nasty habit of looking at the top of the social strata, which admittedly are mostly men, but they project this apex status onto all men across all of history. That's Apex Fallacy in a nutshell and is why "patriarchy" is bunk. Every time you hear about the glass ceiling, but nothing about the glass cellar, you're witnessing Apex Fallacy in action.
