33. im not ashamed of who I am

yes I am a MRA and I am because of a strain of feminism that is full of hate , i can tell you how painful it is to be hit in the face with the scum manifesto , but as i said , doesnt mean I hate women and if you check back the splc have not listed the groups as hate groups, they blogged on the mra , this was actually caused by someone in reddit who has friends in the splc and who was angry that the agent orange files which shows the radfems from the radfemhub who are behind this get together talk about killing kids because they are male and want to throw them through windows ( this radfem is a teacher of special needs kids btw ) , I put my story out there to offer up my reasons for being MRA and to try and dispel a myth or two about what makes an mra tick.

The SPLC are getting money from the radfemhub , an organisation that supposedly fights against hate is taking money from a group that hates anyone not womyn born womyn which pretty much destroys there standpoint.

Im sorry you find my choices objectionable , but im also saddened that you upon seeing in an mra and the fact that it was a feminists actions in abusing me that made me an mra that you refused to see the fact that I signed up because i saw some major middle ground, i saw that there was a feminist who was standing up against hate and challenging , i congratulated the op for showing that the whole "not all feminists are like that" argument is actually true and also was made even happier to see that there are some feminists who are aware of the damage radical feminism does , as i said im an Mra because no other group could see me as a human being who was hurting , i cant be a feminist, the damage in me is too great for that but the op here has taken me , an anti feminist , a libertarian and actually made me see things can be better , i did this because the op showed what is good in feminism.

And i would respectfully suggest you check what the MRA is actually about , anything written by dr warren farrel or erin pizzey is a good place to start ,
