Biased to womens rights,totally neglecting mens rights

As in the reasoning section, only words of feminists and pro feminists had been taken into account,totally neglecting the voice of men's right activists, their reason for voicing against feminism. I have added some concepts that sees antifeminsm from men's right activists like divorce laws favoring women, women domestically abusing men seen as a lower crime,while complying with WP:RS and WP:NPOV.

Thank you for your efforts to bring this page closer to Misplaced Pages‘s normal standards of objectivity in representation of philosophical ideas. I think he might find this conversation/debate/exchange of mine with another editor interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:EvergreenFir (scroll down to “reversion of anti-feminism page“).

Revert

Reverted an edit which added poorly sourced content, and one which removed a reliable source. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 00:32, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

Please stop reverting the edits. The content that was removed from the page is not only vulgar and sexually explicit, but also downright disgusting. That type of language is extremely offensive and certainly has no place on Misplaced Pages. The content of Misplaced Pages should not be offensive to its readers, an article such as Antifeminism does not need to contain such offensive content. Once again, please refrain from reverting the edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.138.224.140 (talk) 20:27, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

This article should be titled “antifeminism according to feminists”

This article is atrocious. It’s a perfect example of one of the main criticisms of feminism: it drowns out all other voices. The article reads like a feminist-doctored version spun to make antifeminism seem as horrible as feminists imagine it to be (I suppose understandably given the name and how they tend to react to challenge). As an actual antifeminist the article seems to me so slanted as to be nearly vertical. It should be completely rewritten up to Misplaced Pages’s (somewhat) normal standards of flat, objective explanation.

Maybe there should be a separate page about antifeminism as it is actually viewed by antifeminists, possibly connected by a disambiguation page?

Destrypants (talk) 07:59, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

I also noticed that this article is indeed about antifeminism as feminists see it. Impartiality isn't this article's strong suit, otherwise the feminist view about antifeminism would be featured only in a section, instead of being the entire article.►Sampayu 08:41, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Have either of you found any reliable sources for antifeminists' views of themselves? Newimpartial (talk) 13:38, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Karen Straughan and Professor Janice Fiamengo are the, if not two of the, top antifeminist scholars, probably in the world if I had to guess. Karen is frankly better: much more theoretical, deeper analysis, more anthropological, natural history perspective, etc. Janice is also very, very good, very precise, specific, well documented antifeminism with copious examples. Destrypants (talk) 16:15, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

I would be very happy to go looking for sound bites from them or any other serious antifeminists if I thought those might be worked into the article for the sake of balancing it out a bit. Please let me know if you are or know of an editor with the skills and clout to accomplish this. Destrypants (talk) 16:18, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
