They tell you they are feminists because they want equal rights and an equal status in society, yet do not consider that men and women are totally different creatures.
If you want to be a man hating lesbian then by all means be one. Don't beat around the bush and torture the poor betas
quick, stick your finger down your throat and un-swallow the red pill before you turn into a sadistic woman hating psychopath.

I mean mostly it is just a bunch of whiny people who blame others for their own problems, but I believe at least feminists are more genuine and that their passion is rooted in something I feel is worthy of discussion. It is a defined set of ideals and I can formulate an argument around what ideas or practices best serve the vision of gender equality.
When people start to say that is not the goal of feminism, that feminism is inherently dishonest and manipulative, I always wonder who that person is and what they're bringing to the table. This is my opinion here, so take it for what you will, but I believe feminism has a long record of accomplishments and contributions to our shared culture which can be built on in honest ways, where the anti-feminist movement is nearly always being evasive, not saying what it really means, and stemming from the idea that women's role in society was better defined at some point in the past when they were unarguably more oppressed.
If that isn't the case, what is anti-feminism offering? What is the action plan? Is there any changes anti-feminists have made to the world that you could point to and say, "I'm proud to be a part of that."?

I've never heard of an argument against feminsm that consisted of men blaming women for their problems. As as far as anti-feminism? I and most other men are not against feminism. We are against giving a group of people preferential treatment based on their race or gender. This is why I made the differentiation for what feminism used to be and what it has evolved to be. I'm all for women being able to vote and work jobs that were traditionally men-only (given they weren't given the job just over a better qualified male candidate just because they are female). I'm not all for shitty mothers given custody over a good dad just because they're female. Or the demonizing of men through rape culture propganda with statistics such as one in four femal college students are raped. Or the lies about how women earn 75% what men make for the same position. Modern feminism is based on lies and disinformation. As far as what anti-feminists have accomplished? obviously not much as year by year men, especially white men, are being more and more discriminated against.
So what is the feminist movement trying to accomplish in 2015? And how are women oppressed today?

Then you are in denial regarding the substance of the anti-feminist argument

Formulate an anti-feminist argument that doesn't consist of blaming women for their own victimization by society.

So nobody is an anti-feminist here, they just blame feminism for causing problems or at least not doing enough regarding alleged preferential treatment of women in child custody litigation, and policies that supposedly favor women in jobs where men traditionally were the majority of the field.
Those are the core of the reasonings behind resentment of "modern" feminists?
Somehow I doubt that.

You've yet answer what feminism is trying to accomplish, and how you are oppressed.

There are market based reasons why women make less money in many jobs. Like their likelihood to fuckoff and be moms and that their health care costs are way higher. Do you know where they make more than men around here? Real estate sales. You see almost no men in the office. Also stripping and prostitution. Probably a few others. What is most involved, though, is that they go into fields that any asshole can do, like social work, and they take fewer chances.

not to mention they are less likely to negotiate for a raise or higher pay
The video I posted that moonrock didn't want to watch broke it down pretty good.

If I ever had a reason to negotiate a deal outside of my job my wife is doing it. She is an extremely successful real estate agent and her negotiation skills are not limited to real estate. But she is a rarity.
