Will feminists return to the forums?

I meant more the general reaction that women will tend to get from men - plenty of men and women will say that they’re not feminists for different reasons (e.g. they feel it divides people, they approve of complementarian role models etc.), but there seems to be a significant amount of anti-feminism and real antagonism towards equality or women in general in some circles.

A(n) MRA man-child’s chief concern is with his perceived status in the world. It doesn’t matter if wimmins are “winning” or not, just that they believe that other people view them as what they consider to be manly men: Those that can control the wimmins in their lives. (If you’re a woman and are visible on the internet, it counts as in THEIR lives).

I love the Scandinavian concept of ‘lagom’, which seems to promote contentment rather than raw ambition and be directly anti-capitalist. Societies that value that do seem to have better gender relations, in my limited experience.

Its about two things: A heavy dose of narcissism which does not allow these people to view themselves as they really are, and the frame of reference of what an ideal man is supposed to look like (What they believe they should be). If you change the context but don’t address the entitlement, then you just get a different sort of inequality. Its my opinion, that the main difference with other countries is cultural, how much personal entitlement people have drives up their narcissistic traits.

But that´s just my opinion.
