    I’ve very rarely see that from feminist circles. And even then it feels like we can only have the emotions they want us to have and not the ones we do have.

      I’ve had the same experience. Or if you do hear about it, it’s reluctant and only in relation to how it affects women.

      I’m fine with women having their own advocacy group, I don’t think they’re equipped to take on men too.

        And whenever there is a push for a male advocacy group it gets labeled as some incel shit. Which attracts alt right types and suddenly it’s yet another pro republican group.

        Men can’t have advocacy groups.

      What emotions do you have that you think you can’t?

      You’re allowed to have anger. But if you’re like many, you conflate the anger feeling with the shouting/punching/violent actions. Toxic actions are bad, but the feelings are valid and ok. Need to find a proper way to express those emotions.
