Feminism is used against men.

Before I start the debate, let me just delve in what I mean. I think a better choice of words for the title of this debate is "Feminism is selfish" rather than "Feminism is used against men". Also a lot of people think that I'm "Calvin Cambridge", I have no idea who that is. Also, I'm apparently a sexist. For giving an opinion. Sweet! Anyway, my only rule is to list your sources. The con can feel free to add on extra rules in the next round. Alright, so lets start with the definition of feminism. According to Wikipedia, "Feminism is a collection of movements aimed at establishing equal rights for women"(. http://en.wikipedia.org...). I find this ironic since feminists try to create equality between both sexes while only focusing solely on the issues of one (women). Feminists usually believe that most inequality that exists favour men over woman. This is entirely untrue. Domestic violence against men is just as common as it is against women. (. http://www.oregoncounseling.org...). The only reason not many people know about this statistic is because no one cares! The media constantly portrays women as the ONLY victims of abuse, while the police usually never believes the man! Any time a man retaliates in self defence against a woman who ATTACKED him first, he is usually pinned as the instigator . http://www.youtube.com... ! In society, if you attack a woman: you're a pig! If you don't retaliate: you're a coward! (See Youtube video) Next argument is about children/pregnancy. Men never get any say when it comes to abortions. It's almost always the woman's choice. If a woman isn't ready for a child and gets an abortion, the usual response is "It's alright, being a mother is hard! ", yet if a man isn't ready for a child and the woman is, the response is usually "Well tough luck, now pay up you dead beat". Why is there never any sympathy towards a man? Why is it ONLY the woman's choice? The typical response is "Her body, her choice" even though this argument completely contradicts itself. If it is her body and her choice, shouldn't it also be her responsibility? The man usually has to pay after birth! Not only that, but the baby is a result of BOTH sexes! Finally, can't the "Her body, her choice" argument be used for the fetus being aborted? Then of course we have child custody, child support, and welfare. This just COMPLETELY hypocritical. Here is what it boils down to: Pregnancy - My body my choice! Child Support - Uhh. .. .my husband can pay! It's his child too! Child Custody - Err. .. it's my child! Yeah, mine! Welfare - Err. .. .my husband can pay for that also! (. http://deltabravo.net...) My final argument for round 2 will be circumcision. Female genital mutilation is widely considered terrible, and a horrible traumatic experience (which it is). Yet male genital mutilation? MGM (Circumcision) is still widely practised in the U. S! The absolute travesty, is that it is performed WITHOUT CONSENT. It is a clear violation of human rights, with no benefits. A lot of feminists will say "It's just a piece of skin" even though it has scientifically been proven over 20'000 nerves are removed with circumcision (. http://en.wikipedia.org...).
