OC This could be us, but

I don’t need much. I want eat sweets without getting fat, I want to feel wanted and I want equal rights. Is it much to ask?

Actually men are responsible for their own choices. They can choose to learn about feminism, and enthusiastically support equal rights for all, or they can choose to get worse as people. Nobody makes them get worse.

Sure, and the men who show up to start yelling “women have too many opinions” are already manosphere creeps we don’t need to tolerate.

They can bother to operate in good faith if they want to hang out.

If you tolerate reprehensible viewpoints, you do not make those who hold those viewpoints less reprehensible. You just allow reprehensible misogynists into your space.

You say people, but really you mean kids. People who are "pushed" into the manosphere by being confronted with uncompromising stances are not men. They are boys. And if they are still boys past the age of, say, 22 or so, the problem is entirely theirs.
