Then you take into account the issues that feminists are frequently fighting for in the west. Take the first example you gave cat calling. I can understand that it's rude, irritating and depending on the situation and women in question, even frightening... but compared to the rates of violent crime men are the victims of, the sentencing gap in courts, the unreciprocated domestic abuse, and many other issues men face that ruin lives or outright kill men, things like man spreading and cat calling are minor inconveniences.

That's not even touching on how feminism will ignore the rampant, violent misogyny in other parts of the world amd even defend the ideologies the promote it (a lot of feminists have gone out of their way to defend islam extremism for example).

Statistics show men are victims of I think it was 48% of domestic violence cases, but it’s been awhile since I saw the stats so I'm probably off by a little bit, that's not taking into account how many men would hiding the abuse they suffer because of how our culture treats men who "let their wives beat them." Yet at the same time there's only one domestic abuse shelter in the entirety of the United States that will accept men. And don't even get me started on male victims of sexual assault or rape. Women have it bad enough with people who won't believe them, imagine what it would feel like to be told that you should have enjoyed it.

While I agree that catcalling has to stop, it seems rather trivial im comparison to the abuse that feminists are silent about. What's more is when men do try to speak up about our problems, we get #masculinitysofragile and feminists busting put their Male Tears mugs. When men try to organize their owm talks and meetings, feminists show up to protest. One meeting to discuss fathers rights in Canada even had a fire alarm pulled on them.

To us, it often seems as though Feminists actively support the aspects of patriarchy that are harmful to men.
