Men's rights have never been a buzzword. Although there have been many a men's rights activists now and then, and some of them are there since quite decades, though now men's rights activists have come of age and getting slowly organized, they have never been able to come up as a big political force or an economic power center, the way women's rights activists aka the Feminists have become.

Almost all major developed and developing nations have prominent women organizations all the way from local NGOs to United Nations, every organization has a women's wing to not only look into women's problems but also spread male hatred. These feminist wings have a major say in the laws that are framed with an apparent intention of ‘saving women', but in reality are made to suck the blood of men, extort them financially and in a nutshell spread so much male-hatred in the society and create so much fear amongst the men that they become slaves before morally bankrupt women. The reason for such humungous imbalance in the sensitization of the society towards men's rights and women's rights is a very huge and complex phenomenon which cannot be touched upon in a single article. This article will touch upon a very innate psychology of men which resists them from openly talking about men's problems and the need to address them i.e. men's rights.

As a men's rights activist, I see that the growth of men's movement is more impeded by men than women as otherwise thought. Any sensible woman, when confronted with a man's problem agrees that it should be addressed, however men oppose. And some of the reasons they oppose are,

  1. It makes the men feel weak, something they can never accept. Again the reasons for the same cannot be dealt here in entirety; however it is due to a fact that given the current social construct, a man is not allowed to be weak, as weak men are not supported by the society.
  2. They feel, talking of men's rights will make them sound, "Anti-Woman" and may not get women in life. This is again a myth which will be explained in a later article.
  3. They feel, the victimized men are talking of men's rights as they had done something wrong (the reason they got victimized) and are thus now compensating by working for men's rights, however the women fighting for women's rights were wronged somehow and are thus justified in their fight, thus depicting double standards
  4. Continuing, they also feel that since they have not done anything wrong, they will not be victimized.
  5. They are too logical and expect everyone around them to be logical.
  6. They do not believe in freedom of men, their own brethren. They feel that as men until and unless they do not slog like a dog, bearing responsibilities and sacrificing their own self-interest, they are Unmanly and do not deserve to be called men.

These reasons are merely illustrative and not exhaustive, illustrative of the fact that innately it's the men who are bigger enemies' of men and men's rights. A man, who cannot fight for himself, is not a man. So Oh men, Save thy Brethren.

Men’s Rights – Perspiration or Inspiration?

As I think about the today's theme - it reminds me of Thomas Edison, the man who invented the electric bulb. He had made a famous statement "Things are 99% perspiration, 1% inspiration"

Same applies to men's rights movement as well. It is a matter of constant awareness campaign and hitting at our opponents and proponents of male abuse. Contrary to popular belief, it is 3 times easier to abuse a male than a female because males have no support structure and male abuse is accepted by the society as social service.

Follow Yourself; Not Tradition

As I have repeatedly mentioned in my articles that cultures have deceived men, acting as vultures. Men have been used as the FREE ATM MACHINE, the UNPAID BODYGUARD, the de-facto PROTECTOR and PROVIDER, etc. by cultures and in the process have been reduced to disposable entities. Their abuse is considered a social service now.

And men, the way they are, are in a great way responsible for this. They rarely challenge or question conventions, traditions, histrionics and stereotypes thrust upon them. They do not feel the need to fight for their rights - only a handful of them are doing though scores are getting victimized. They do not demand for their space in the society and accept things as offered to them.

To this effect, today I take the example of Skandagupta - the great emperor of India. His stepmother has him sent to Ujjain so that her son can be made the emperor. He obeys her. But then the Huns attack India under the leadership of Attila the Hun. The army of Skandagupta calls him back as they needed his expertise.
