quote:

1. Do 50% (or more) of housework.


Suggested choice in bold.

quote:

10. Have progressive name politics.

If you and your female partner decide that the institution of marriage is something you want to be involved with, be willing to both keep your existing surnames. If having a common surname with your spouse is important to you, be willing to change your surname and treat this as a preferable option to your spouse changing hers.


quote:

15. Don’t be an online bystander in the face of sexism.


(looking at you, OT)

quote:

22. Have integrity with your male friends. (i.e., Don’t be a “bro.”)



(And again)

quote:

26. Find female mentors/leaders. (i.e., Be subordinate to women.)


quote:

33. Walk the walk about income inequality.

Women still earn about 77% as much as men. If you are in a position where you are financially able to do so, consider donating a symbolic 23% of your income to social justice-oriented causes. If 23% sounds like a lot to you, that’s because it is a lot and it’s also a lot for women who don’t have a choice whether to forfeit this amount or not.


quote:

34. Get in the habit of treating your maleness as an unearned privilege that you have to actively work to cede rather than femaleness being an unearned disadvantage that women have to work to overcome.

So they don't support equality, but rather dominance over men? These bitches need to change their tampons, take some Midol and make me a sammich.

I pay the women that work for me the same as the men. So, I'm clear of this feminism guilt, right?

but insert yourself into spaces where you can use your maleness


I liked where No. 5 was headed.

quote:

30. Inject feminism into your daily conversations with other men.

If your father doesn’t do his fair share of housework, talk to him about why this is important. If your friend cheats on his girlfriend or speaks negatively about her, talk to him candidly about respecting individual women with whom he is intimate is part of having respect for women in general. Have conversations with your younger brothers and sons about sexual consent.


Yeah. This would have gone over REALLY well with my Dad.

8. Be responsible for contraception.

If you are in a relationship where contraception is necessary, offer to use methods that do not have health risks for women (use of hormones, surgeries, etc.) and treat these as preferable options


I always offer to pull out if she wants.

will NEVER take feminism seriously until they fight to be included in the selective service draft, and when the courts stop guaranteeing women majority custody and alimony.

Any man who would take this advice would not only be a weird friendless man, but would also drive any woman he was in a relationship with insane. Even the dumb bitch who wrote this article clearly can't mean this, and if she did, I guarantee within 6 months she'd be in the arms of another man. Seriously, I bet if this bitch's long-suffering husband (if she somehow has one) gave away 23% of his salary for women's rights, she'd flip her shite and leave him immediately.

Pay attention to and challenge informal instances of gender role enforcement.

quote:

For example, if you are at a family function or dinner party, pay attention to whether it is mostly/only women who are doing food preparation/cleaning/childcare while men are socializing and relaxing. If it is, change the dynamic and implore other men to do the same.




quote:

31. If you have a tendency to behave inappropriately toward women when you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol, do not consume drugs or alcohol.
