I'm male, I believe in social, economic and political equality for both women and men. That incorporates ideals of feminism, therefore I could be considered a feminist (although I consider myself an egalitarian). So you find me repulsive? On that basis alone?
Because I think you deserve to be given the same basic rights as any man, you find me repulsive. That's sad. What's sadder is the majority of men on this poll think that's a normal perspective.
And another thing... I feel like this post was created by some sexist, old, lonely man. That or, a woman who enjoys being at the feet of men. Which means very fucked up and possibly abused as a child by a male figure.

... some SEXIST (yes), OLD (no, I am in my mid-twenties) LONELY (no, I have a great relationship) MAN (no, I am a woman)... or VERY FUCKED UP (probably yes) and POSSIBLY ABUSED AS A CHILD (no)...
Equality is fine. The problem is that many people who support feminist ideology and speak about the “equality“ tend to take that too far which results in women having more privileges and less responsibilities than men in many areas. I am repulsed by men who think that it's OK to kiss women's asses even if they treat them like a crap and who willingly let society make them totally disposable (not equal).
Nowadays, the situation seems so fucked up sometimes that many people who naturally treat people in their personal relationships as equals would tell you that feminism is bullshit.
Those people aren't representing feminism, they're representing female supremacism disguised as feminism. That's different, and it's understandable to find that ridiculous. You should have been more specific in your question, rather than targeting all male feminists.
I am sure that radical feminists also believe that they are "true" feminists and I am not here to decide who "real" feminists are. If those feminists and egalitarians don´t clearly distinguish themselves and form two completely separate groups, I don´t care to strictly distinguish between them either.
That's your prerogative, but to me that's just wilful ignorance. If you're not willing to distinguish between people claiming wrongfully to be something and those claiming rightly to be something then you have no right to be 'repulsed'.
Right to be repulsed? I have never heard such a bulshit. Something as stupid as this can be said only by a person who believes in feminist ideology. The problematics of "rights" poisoned your ability to think clearly.
BTW: All feminists would say that they claim rightly to be feminists - radical ones as well as the others. All those who label themselves "feminist" have to deal with the fact that they will be seen as a group. If egalitarians feel different they should strictly avoid the label "feminist".
If you are too lazy or apathetic to make the effort to understand feminism and thus be capable of differentiating between those claiming to be feminists who are, and those claiming to be feminists who aren't, then you can't justify having such a vehement reaction to ALL male feminists.
It's like hating all muslims because of the minority that blow themselves up in public places, or all women because your mother was a bitch, or all dogs because Droopy freaks you out, or all white people because you hate The Beatles.
It's funny, because your reaction seems pretty stupid for somebody dishing out the accusations of stupidity.
Is it normal that I find men who hold feminist beliefs repulsive?

I agree completely with this perspective. So would my suffragette Granny. So blow it out your ears you ignorant windbags. Feminist is not a bad word.
Thank you! This is exactly how I feel! What's wrong with actually liking women? Sorry for wanting you to have the same rights as any human deserves.

Repulsed is your word. I can't believe how full of shit you are as a woman.
if the terrible twins speak as one?
