Why is it that no matter how many feminists say that feminism is about gender equality...?

The few that are militant misandrists are the ones that are the noisiest about it. I do not believe all are like that. They have tainted the genuine movement for equality. For every Germaine Greer (I wont quote but look her up if you want) there are probably 100 who just want equality.

One thing that annoys me is the spell checker here doesn't recognise misandry but does recognise misogyny.

Edit:

If men are being discriminated against us men need to speak out against it and not accept it. Blaming feminism is just lazy.

It seems like the modern feminist movement is a bit corrupt.

If women have less rights than men somewhere, feminists are up in arms to help and to change things.

However, when the odds are stacked against men and in favor of women, it appears as though nothing is wrong with this. There is no action taken. Men get custody of their children far less often than women. Is this because men are evil or worse parents than women? No.

This is clearly an example of a system that favors women, and feminists aren't doing a darn thing to fix it or to make it equal because it is in their advantage.

People tend to react to the aspect of something that they see as a negative or feel is not truthful. People don't tend to be vocal about things they feel neutral about or are not issues.

I often point out that the actions feminists overall support are not about equality, because that's the area where I see feminists as being inconsistent and a feel a spade should be called a spade.

I'm also curious as to what you base your idea that most feminists only fight for equality on. By far most feminists I know support privileges for women, not just equal opportunity. (such as aa) Or they seek equal outcomes in when they haven't provided equal input (such as the wage gap)

Because men are not equal to women biologically, so any movement that tries to make them "equal" is going to have to knock the superior gender down a few pegs to make it look like we are equal. Take the school system for example, its biased in favor women, and women do better. But when it comes to the workforce, where feminists haven't completely put it in favor of women yet, men outperform.

Liberals vilify republicans for the deeds of the few and vice versa. Feminism is basically a political party so what's the difference and why does this surprise you?

Because it's the loud and different ones that stand out the most. So while you have a veritable sea of women wanting true equality so the ones whose message is a little different, those are the ones that stand out, the ones that defy the pattern, and therefore are the ones most noticed.

militant = threatening

People don't like threats. They are problem solvers who keep a wary on what might be considered dangerous. That's how people operate.

There are militant MRA's, as well. I keep a wary eye on them, too.

And depending on how militant, and how big of a threat is perceived (from any direction), I might do more than that.

Women who truly want equality choose to use the same name as women who want to see men fall. If you wear the same uniform, you're on the same team. Denying it wont change that.

Because feminists are bare faced liars and what they say is irrelevant. It is what they actually do that counts.

Feminists say they are for equal rights but they only FIGHT for women's rights and privileges.

Right. And all pro-life people bomb abortion clinics and kill doctors and that's a fact because there were the 3 times that it happened. People are ridiculous.
