Criticism of Feminism == Sexism

This tactic has gotten old and worn, ladies.
I'm fascinated by your ability to sound just like a bitter, woman hating, white republican male who listens to Rush Limbaugh w-a-y too often and has never taken responsibility for anything his entire life. Perhaps you should move to Alabama or Louisiana and run for Congress.
This is a Basic 6th Grade Debate Fail. Ad Hominem and Slander. It no longer works, it doesn't silence men, and we don't feel shamed in comporting to how you think we should behave.
Also under new domestic violence laws the offender male or female is arrested by the police on the scene.
Not in many must arrest states. The officers must arrest the person most likely to do harm, and because men are biologically stronger on average than women, he is arrested and kicked out of his house.
Why is respect and dignity for women, so hard for the male person to understand? Do you believe we have to physically fight for this status?
Because what Anglo Feminists think of as respect and dignity is considered in the rest of the world to be the whinings of an ungrateful, spoiled, child.
Because you say you want respect and dignity, but the methods and results 2nd-4th Wave Feminists use are obviously ones of power, dominance, control, manipulation, dissemblement and superiority.
'Requesting' that men help isn't a request. You have shown this over and over during the past 50 years. What is first a request will soon become a demand, then it will become Law, forcing men to do as you wish so that you can be 'equal'. Then social and work mores and codes will be changed, and men will be forced to do what you think is 'fair', under penalty of law suit, litigation, and/or job loss and career destruction.
We get no respect or status in this world as women.
You are delusional. Only a woman who is a member of the most privileged, wealthy, free group in the history of mankind (American Women) would be able to morph such a status into one of impoverishment on all levels. American Women spend 80% of all consumer dollars, AW have a maddening array of legal, social, occupational, educational and other entitlements.
80% of the people losing their jobs in The Super Depression are men, yet you claim grievance and oppression.
This is not the response of a rational being or group.
I don't know why you think men get respect or status automatically, but to think so is the attitude of a child who doesn't understand the world. Men put up with infinite amounts of grief on a daily basis. We compete with other men, women, and now nagging harridans who have taken over much of the culture.
No one offers us a helping hand, no one opens doors for us, no one stops on the roadside to help us fix our car. There is no Affirmative Action for us. We are passed over at Uni for minorities. We are on our own, and know that we and we alone are responsible for our lives.
Yes, some of us are bitter. Because many women have treated many men so poorly at work, at home, in Divorce Court, in relationships, that we do not trust women as a group to act responsibly, sanely, with honor.
Yes, we ARE angry. We have every right to be when the back-breaking work men have done over the past 500 years to construct civilisation is lied about, dissembled about and made into 'Oppression' and 'The Patriarchy'.
You girls can change the U.S.A. all you want, but you will continue to get the same results. You will continue to be unhappy with your lives. You will continue to be stressed out, overweight, and masculine. Men will continue to back off from marriage, dating and committment. You will continue to hear more and more the refrain: "There are no good men left." That is because they cannot stand YOU, and have moved on to another country.
This you cannot stop.
You cannot force men to stay in the U.S.A. and deal with your crap. You cannot force us to love you, to date you, to marry you, to work less than you do just so you can play at being 'equal'.
