Meninism is a movement for whiny, insecure men who can’t handle feminism. There. I’ve said it.
But let’s rewind… like many things on the internet, the meninism movement started as a ‘joke’ and a hashtag.
No, we’re not ok with this sexist beer cafe ad.
But like many things on the internet, it was soon hijacked by morons.
Now, it is an anti-feminism, men’s right movement. And they have their own t-shirts and everything.
Exhibit A:
Exhibit B:
Of course, this is a free society and people can wear whatever stupid item of clothing they want.
The masturbation tissues the world probably didn’t need.
But we’re guessing no female will ever want to talk to these idiots ever again.
What do you think of the t-shirts, and the meninism movement?
NOT OK: If you work for this company, you’ve got to be pretty.
Here are some other ads and products we are definitely not OK with…

Just because you are for men's issues does not make you anti feminism. I hate feminism because it is about equality which clearly feminist do not want.
So you hate it because you don't understand it? Yeah, cool. I hate planes because I don't want them to kill all birds, and I think that's what planes do. Respect my opinion.
Look I've I'm well read. It's just feminism does not stick to a definition. Using this article

It claims it should be about equal rights for both men and women. But what I see feminism doing is isolating and demeaning them to further their cause. I'm an equalitist (not a word but you get my drift). Not for women or men, I'm for what is fair and good.
The biggest mistake made in the feminist discourse was to conflate patriarchy with men as a gender, though I'm heartened to see that changing with the likes of Emma Watson analysing the issues so cogently. Men are disadvantaged by patriarchy to a huge extent, in ways that are very different to the experience of women. Only when we separate the stereotypical roles that 100s of years of patriarchy have engendered for all people from the gendered roles we are both playing out will we really be able to make meaningful changes. Personally I think Greer has a lot to answer for, her intellect is far outstripped by her ego and she's contributed to this difficulty quite significantly by slinging at individual men as if they are plotting behind our backs. Men have had a rough time trying to live up to what they think a "man" is just as we women have in trying to be what we think we should be. We're in this together, we need to understand each other and stop this superficial "blaming".
Articulated beautifully.
