There are many feminists institutions, that guy got kicked out from FEMEN Sweden. Others got kicked out from campus groups or web forums. If you want go to MRA forum and just ask.

Perhaps you have no membership card because you never applied anywhere. But some people are more involved.

Ok, one more time:

- Someone suggest that men could have more visitation rights to his children.

- Radfems answer that most men are rapists and they could rape their own children.

- Author answers that it is not true, and gets shamed as rape apologist etc.

Any more questions?

Men teachers or baby-sitters practically does not exist anymore, exactly for this reasons. So "screams rape" fits like a glove.

Yes, feminism is pretty much religion today. You can be "kicked out" for being men or not agreeing with some 'axioms' such as rape culture or patriarchy. One link for demonstration:

Feminism is not just 'bigger' it is multi-billion dollar industry. MRA is just a few web forums which barely managed to organize single conference.

If you disagree with some radical feminists, perhaps it is time to tell them, instead of bashing on MRAs.

I am saying that every time some practical problem is brought up, authors gets shamed and discussion gets derailed to irrelevance. So 'screams rape' fits.

And men have legitimate fears of being raped as well.

Family courts "do not just happens" to disadvantage men. There is duluth model and other literature produced mainly by feminists largely responsible for that. On any proposal such as child payments to be accountable or visitation rights enforceability, feminists screams rape.

MRA are making many efforts to cooperate with feminism. Many MRAs are feminists shamed and kicked out for not being radical enough. So far we got only acknowledgement that "men has issues too", that is kind of success.

I will not comment on article itself. I could go on any feminist conference and cherry-pick many statements.
