Feminists do not hate men

Despite misconceptions, feminists do not hold negative attitudes towards men. Multiple studies involving nearly 10,000 participants from different countries found that feminists have positive attitudes towards men, comparable to non-feminists. The widespread belief that feminists hate men is a falsehood, as participants in the studies, including feminists themselves, underestimated feminists' warmth and positive attitudes towards men. The studies also revealed that feminists perceive men as both a threat and similar to women, leading to divergent perceptions. This research highlights the need to challenge the stereotype of man-hating feminists and promote a more accurate understanding of feminism.
