Well I find that statement a bit inappropriate for a gender gap list, considering that i find the problem quite serious. And if men think that equality is about revenge, then I would say their falling into a cliche that has been used for years to discredit feminism.
You're expressing your own feelings here rather than mine. But that too is relevant. All I said was that a skewed demographic is troublesome. Generalizing from me to "men" is not rational.
And I can see ahead to the next "move". "Men say women are not rational". However, we're not here to play a game, at least not when we focus on the problem we're attempting to address.

And seriously: being a man under female supprression is not an appealing vision, very much like being a woman suppressed by males.
as long as all men will assume that feminism is about revenge rather than equality, visions of a female dominated <something> will feel scary.
Poor guy, i'd say.

It would be pretty awful. Scenes like that are not welcoming.
