Gender roles that shame men for earning less than their female SO, being short or not being ''alpha'' enough are also part of feminism.

Haha, no they aren't. Look, I'm no anti-feminist, but acting as those are primary focuses of feminism is nonsense.

Feminism is about female empowerment. That's it.

I did not say that they were the primary focus, but gender equality is an integral part of feminism. Prove me wrong.

those would qualify as issues of gender equality, but they are not and never have been any common talking points among feminists...

some feminists do their part to also speak out and support mens issues
but those actions are not because of feminism, its because those particular feminists concurrently support egalitarian views

and no, egalitarianism does NOT innately equal feminism
sayin it does is a commonly spewed myth

i say this as an actual feminist
feminism is about raising women up to match men in rights and privileges, that is the type of equality it provides
it does not innately do anything in cases where men need to catch up to women
and more people, men and women, are waking up to that...
