What do men really think about this topic? I asked a male in my friend group his opinions on feminism and here were the results. A little bit of information on this person, he is in a loving relationship, he plays rugby at SCU, and is caucasian.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the questions<\/p>\n<p>What do you think about feminism?<\/p>\n<p>It is a great idea but miss understood by most people and a lot\u00a0do not fully understand the concept behind it.<\/p>\n<p>When you hear the word feminism what do you think?<\/p>\n<p>I think of strong women and the issues they have to face I also\u00a0think about the &#8220;crazy&#8221; feminist too and how they\u00a0can be alittle too much<\/p>\n<p>Has having a gf changed your opinion on feminism?<\/p>\n<p>no because I was feminist before having a girlfriend and I continue to be one<\/p>\n<p>Do you have any advice for men who are against feminism and how would you explain it?<\/p>\n<p>The most important thing is treating women as they should be treated and how there is a\u00a0stigma of women being unequally treated and if they didn&#8217;t listen I wouldn&#8217;t waste my time .<\/p>\n<p>The interesting thing about this is after I asked these questions it sparked a lively debate among our friends. Questions that came up in class were discussed like &#8220;what does it mean to truly be equal to a man&#8221; and questions about rape culture. Hearing these unbiased comments from a white straight man is very interesting especially with the stigma that white men do not care about feminism.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-71\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/laurendillon\/files\/2018\/01\/Unknown-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"286\" height=\"176\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-72 alignnone\" style=\"font-size: 12px\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/laurendillon\/files\/2018\/01\/Unknown-2-300x158.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"321\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/laurendillon\/files\/2018\/01\/Unknown-2-300x158.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.scu.edu\/laurendillon\/files\/2018\/01\/Unknown-2.jpeg 310w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 321px) 100vw, 321px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my last blog post I commented about my own feminist views and my up bringing and in this one I decided to change tactics.
