Note: This is not a pro-feminism or anti-feminism article.

You will come across many videos on Youtube, and other social media handles where people have called out on feminism. Viewers simply love those videos. Ever thought about it, why?

Now before I get started with it, I wanna share what I stand for. Look! I don't care what's in your pants, but if you are a spiritual-minded, deep-thinking, and intelligent, then I like you more. Of course, if you don't have any of the above traits, it's not that I don't think highly of you. We may have many common grounds if we talk/chat. It's just a matter of friendly conversation.

Now, when it comes to the rights of women, sure. I'm all up for it.

So, this is my stand so that those who don't know me personally won't think I have a hidden agenda or some shit. I hope you get an idea where I'm coming from. So don't judge me without reading this entire piece of writing.

Now back to the topic. If feminism is all about women to have equal rights like men, then why so many people hate it?

Keep in mind I'm gonna put my analysis based on my observation. Sure, you can disagree with it.

1) Man-hating

I think this is one of the main reasons why many people don't like feminism. Many people hold this view that though feminism claims it is all about women's rights, but in its core, it's simply man-hating.

This is where things start to get ugly, that's how the terms like feminazi or pseudofeminist get justified. Sure, I have come across feminists who say the above examples are wrong and don't represent actual feminism. So, that's all alright. Every organization, community, culture, or religion has bad apples. But the above reason is not the only reason why many people dislike feminism.

2) Agree with us, or you're a sexist

Many feminists can't take criticism. You will come across various studies and researches by different scholars who say how feminism has made women more miserable. I'm not gonna quote any of those studies because my purpose is not to bash feminism here like many people do (and get millions of views/likes on social media handles).
