Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    That is an important point. But why it’s unpopular is that it’s not “feminism’s” job to do this. Feminism is a struggle to give women equal opportunities to men. They do not include race, poverty, and definitely not men’s issues in this.

    To put it bluntly: It’s not women’s job to fix men.

    Men’s loneliness crisis may have come about as a result of modern societal changes. Including equality for women. But it’s men who need to organise and fix that.

    (And honestly- as someone who has moved around the western world - this seems uniquely American problem. European men have rich social lives. Even in the most feminist nations)

      Nah, it comes from “feminists” making men the villains. And women listening to those “feminists”. It doesn’t concern me personally - I’m a man who’s pretty comfortable with who I am and some power-tripping psychos who hide behind feminism don’t really change anything about that, but sometimes I’m really sorry for men who are less sure of themselves or who internalized hearing they are the bad guys from all sides.
