I have issues with feminism

I feel the same.
To think otherwise is irrational.
The problem is that some people embrace the concept of "collective guilt", which is logical nonsense.
According to Christianity, we all have original sin because of something that Adam and Eve did.
Apparently, all Jews are responsible for the death of Christ.
And in the same vien, all Germans are responsible for the Holocaust.
It never ceases to amaze me how so many people can be so irrational in their beliefs.

In traditional Christian teaching, original sin is the result of Adam and Eve's disobedience to God when they ate a forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden. https://www.google.com/search?client=fi ... CAs&uact=5

It happens to all of us, from time to time.

I have made it clear from the start that what I take issue with is the constant man bashing and pushing of collective guilt ideology, not women's suffrage.
All you are doing is reiterating the same tired strawman. There is nothing logical about your conclusion.

That is one of the many reasons why Christianity is idiotic.
And I love how the Jews are so hated for killing Jesus, while at the same time his death was part of God's plan and is would be no salvation without it.

I am inclined to agree.My brief experience of being an active participant in the feminist movement was dealing with people -- both men and women -- who could go on at length about "The Evil That Is Men".
The women seemed to have grudges against specific men in their pasts, while the men were simply looking to get laid.

I got myself kicked from that sub for posting in pussypassdenied because how dare we want women to be held to the same standard as men and I had never even posted in FDS but that is Reddit for ya.

I support feminism and equality. In fact I really admire strong women whether fictional or historical. but I dislike man-bashers who blame men for all the evil in this world. Just like I dislike SJWs who do the same to white people. White men are still human.

I have noticed the double standard in that it's socially acceptable to bash men and it's unacceptable for men to bash women. We call them misogynists but I have never seen anyone call a woman a misandry.
If a man is a afraid of women, he is called a misogynist but if a woman fears men, no one would shame her calling her a misandry.
I can understand why this double standard exists though.

I would compare the same double standads to how it seems acceptable for people of color to hate or fear white people but it can never be the other way around because that appears to be even more taboo to acknowledge.

I am trying to work out your exact point, you have made that clearer now.
So collective guilt is an "ideology" that doesn't require critical thought but rather make all members of a particular group (let's say cis-hetero-white males) guilty of being a member of a "privilege group" despite members of the aforementioned group not necessarily a) holding any bias against women/gays/dark people? and b) not ever having conducted themselves in a manner where they invoked their membership of said group to take advantage of those not members?
I think that about summarises what I think you are trying to say

Hated?
I've listened to Christian lectures regularly on Christian radio station so from that it seems like reverence or deference not hatred.
They even have rabbis come on regularly for Q&As and advice - who frame things as per Torah (reference) - for the Christian listeners. Meaning it is deference and respect. I've listened to this over a long period of time so I can say I never heard anything conveying hatred.
They also don't frame any faults in stories as Jews per se but 'all of mankind' having negative tendencies in general, about which I wholeheartedly agree. I don't know the exact story as per Christianity, but I didn't see hatred anyway.
But to be sure I'm not an expert, and this is a digression from the topic too.
