Could we maybe not make big overgeneralisations about what "men" think and return to the topic at hand? This mailing list shouldn't be about discrediting the intentions of feminists. Neither should it be about discrediting the intentions of men, or working on the assumption that somebody can't be both.

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.

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.
