Glad to hear it! I must admit my first thought was "oh oh, something's gone sour"!

When some pathetic woman say something and claim its in the cause of women's rights its so annoying so now i think we as men should start doing all the same (for male causes) in the name of "Mens rights"
I admire the women who campaigned for rights in the era when women fought for the vote, equal pay for equal work, access to education, etc, but I could not relate to the issues that characterised the feminist movement when I was a young woman in the 1970’s.

There are real “men’s rights” issues, but I don’t see the point in men “doing the same” as extreme feminists.

When I went to university, I stayed away from classes in gender and/or sexual politics, because the real issues were sidelined.
