How do آپ guys do it? :-(

I see so many anti-feminists and MRAs spreading their shit about Feminism, and the masses following them like cattle to a slaughterhouse. How do آپ guys remain so positive about this movement? I need some Feminist strength. X'-O

Don't put your focus the on people hating feminism, put your focus on the people who love it. It's a known fact that people are always going to dislike something آپ might believe in, like politics, religion, and rights. It happens no matter what. So the most important thing is to surround yourself with people who are for feminism. Don't تلاش for ویڈیوز on people discussing on how much they hate it, but look up ویڈیوز on empowering women from the past and present. Keep a positive look on things. Just keep the negative away, آپ know? :)

For me it is really just about knowing what I believe in. I refuse to be a second-class citizen. I want all of the young girls of today, and the ones who haven't been born yet, to know that "feminine" does not equal "weak". I want all men and future men to know that being on equal footing with a woman does not make them weak.
All of this is too important to me for me to forget about it because some people, most of whom dont understand feminism, bad-mouth it. If the idea of gender equality is so ridiculous and/or scary to them that they have to make fun of it, then they are not worth my time to worry about.

Let them know that were the strong one's not them. The biggest thing to remember about beating a bully is to know that YOUR the person that's right and to not let anybody knock آپ down.

I try to avoid watching یا reading anything سے طرف کی MRAs. They are so unbelievably dishonest and so anti-women it makes me sick to my stomach. If آپ go to Manboobz.com there are great take downs of MRAs nonsense سے طرف کی David Futrelle that are incredibly funny, and occasionally he posts ویڈیوز of cute things like kittens and baby animals to balance out all the ugliness. MRAs hate him, which means he must be doing something right!

Logic. I find that anti-feminists' main failing is in logical thought, so I try to beat them at their own game that way. Like آپ said, many anti-feminists seem like mindless cattle following someone else's lead, and what I find is that if آپ can logically disprove the ridiculous notions that leaders of the movements spread and they unquestioningly accept, it shuts them up pretty quickly.

So educate yourself as much as possible, don't be afraid to respond to idiotic blathering, and above all don't get discouraged when, after آپ have successfully disproved/countered everything they've said, they say that "you just don't get it" یا that you're wrong "just because" یا they call آپ a name. Remember that it just means that you've won the argument :)

Many people accept what they're told as fact and never put any effort into understanding why they think what they think. Knowing your mind and just as importantly knowing WHY آپ believe the things آپ do will make آپ a better and less hateful person.

Good luck!

Um, don't kill yourself. Have the will to stop hurting yourself and continue with life. Eventually, the negativity that fills your brain will fade.

That's how I do it. It's not real cheerful, but...

So, basically, I should avoid the anti-feminists as much as possible and go back to striving to become a novelist and continue to violate my mind with yaoi porno, then?

I just think about how, for every MRM Morin like Dick Masterson, there's a really awesome, positive, feminist person like Anita Sarkeesian of FeministFrequency یا one of the many awesome people on this club. And when آپ deal with MRMs یا people like that, just shut them down with sheer logic and watch them realize they've been outsmarted سے طرف کی you. They may seem like the majority, but really they're not.

Believe me, I've felt this way so many times and I thought I was the only one. I think of the big picture and I wonder if one دن we will eventually succeed in change for every human being. There have been several things I have done to counter act these over whelming thoughts. One, like all these awesome people have said; ignore the negative and surround yourself with information and things supporting the cause. Two, is being proactive yourself. I have found if I am doing my part to help, that is one مزید step to progress. Also, if آپ feel the need to react, just keep doing your research and blow them out of the water.
