An actual male-focused feminism-style movement that was about more than just enacting misogyny would focus on:
dismantling toxic masculinity
ending the devaluation of femininity that causes 99% of the issues specific to men
ending homophobia, transphobia, biphobia, intersexism, and cissexism among men
providing resources to young trans, gay, bi, and nonbinary guys
ending mental illness stigma among men
teaching about consent, abuse, and how to spot it and what to do
acting as real allies to feminists by spreading feminist ideals among men
Men:
If you want to know what to do since we don’t want you to take leadership positions in
feminist spaces, consider this a wakeup call. This is your job.
refuse to laugh at sexist jokes, even when no women around
stop telling sexist jokes, even when no women around
talk about women you admire (for non-sexual reasons) to other men
refuse to participate in “rating” women
vote for representatives who will make women’s rights a priority
when you see a woman being ignored or spoken over, say, “I think she had something to say, and I would like to hear it.”
give women credit for our ideas and accomplishments, make sure to voice appreciation for women’s contributions often taken for granted
stop asking women to do menial things you can do for yourself–example, Terry Crews got himself a purse because he realized he was always asking his wife to hold things for him
if you are straight or bi, educate yourself on the female body. read the Vagina Monologues, etc..
consume media with female main characters, normalize the idea of relating to and empathizing with women’s experiences
