What if... you stay away from women because, due to your sexual orientation, you would only break their hearts. That makes you a supreme friend of women as you sacrifice yourself for their wellbeing.
BAM, problem solved
Now see, that only makes sense if I was the supremely attractive, take-off-my-shirt-and-you-are-blinded-by-my-abs kind of gay man. I however, am the more average-looking-just-a-nice-guy, kind of gay man.

But seriously, I actually am a feminist as I view that women should be treated equally to men, and not be given less money for working the same exact job. This equality plays out in everything as well. Women should not be treated better when it comes to divorce courts, as even when the woman cheated or something, the man still ends up having to pay a large sum. Same applies for child custody hearings, as sometimes even when the man is proven to be a better caretaker, the woman is treated better and given the children. Not always, but I have seen it happen, which is rather sickening and makes me feel bad for the kids.
THE WAAAAY I SEE IT, YOU'VE GOT THREE KINDS OF FEMINISTS.
TIER 1- This kind of of feminist, he/she feels the need to have equal rights for women, but he/she wouldn't really do much about it.
TIER 2- This kind, we have a feminist that is very open about her opinions, these are the ones that would be outside of some public gathering yelling "EQUAL RIGHTS EQUAL RIGHTS". This one actually cares that women aren't getting the right treatment, and is doing something about it.
TIER 3-This one is the one that the men need to stay away from. These feminists are the ones that are fighting to get their equality... Literally most of the time... Be careful if you insult women around these, they are probably body builders.
I got all of this from my honors english class, we were talking about feminist criticism. Looking at books from a feminist point of view.
You forgot one.
TIER 4: This type of feminist is the most dangerous of any creature known to this planet, for they think men are the cause of everything wrong in their lives, and that all men, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identification, are rapists. They also think women should be treated better, not equally, to men, since they used to be oppressed. They are not happy with equality, which ultimately defeats the purpose of what feminism truly is.
They are more commonly known as the extremist feminists, and not even the other feminist groups like or support their views.

I could go on and on about why I agree with you and elaborate. But I think the sentence "the world is a fucked up place" pretty much sums it up.
Anyway, Paul Ryan. Because that shit is actually a real possibility. And that would just fucking suck balls. (In the bad way, not the good way.)
Yea, the world fucking sucks sometimes. But, we just got to do our best to make the world a little more awesome each day.
Anyway, I barely pay attention to politics during election years, since it's only about the candidates and nothing else. So, what's this deal with Paul Ryan?
