"Feminism is on the verge of reverse sexism"
Article here. Excerpt:
By the simplest of definitions, I’m a feminist. I’m for the equal rights of all genders, races, religions, sexual-preferences, etc. However, as of late, I refuse to call myself a feminist.
There’s a specific group of feminists who jump on every opportunity to attack what they consider to be male privilege. However, with these people, the term “male privilege” applies to almost anything that has to do with a male. Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t against the feminist, or as I prefer to call it (and will hereafter refer to it as) “equalist,” movement, but rather the recent unequal representation of men in gender issues as a result of one group’s agenda to reverse that of women.
...
The problem at hand here isn’t simply one of women being oppressed, but one of equal rights for all. Men are expected to be tough and man up, while women are expected to be gentle and kind. Men are encouraged not to show emotion, while women are judged harshly as being the weaker, more emotional sex. My point is this: third-wave feminism has become a problem in our country. Instead of focusing on feminism, we should focus on equalism, because everyone is important and deserves all the same rights and privileges.'

"On the verge"?
It fell off the edge years ago. Over 100 years to be more exact.
It didn't start w/ "Third Wave Feminism". It started w/ "First Wave" and only got worse as time went on.
