Popis: Aktivizem za moške pravice ima bogato in zanimivo zgodovino. Začel se je sočasno s feminizmom, a zaradi ideoloških nestrinjanj sta se nato gibanji razšli. V naši nalogi smo pri gibanjih ugotovili dve pomembni razliki. Prva se kaže v dojemanju patriarhata. Aktivisti za moške pravice trdijo, da so moški podvrženi trpljenju zaradi feminizirane družbe, kjer imajo večino moči ženske, medtem ko feministi trdijo, da še vedno živimo v patriarhalni družbi, ki posameznike socializira v tradicionalne spolne vloge. Druga se kaže v dojemanju nastanka neenakosti na podlagi spola. Aktivisti za moške pravice trdijo, da te neenakosti nastanejo zaradi avtonomnih in individualnih odločitev posameznikov in ne zaradi strukturnega zatiranja na podlagi spola, kot to trdijo feministi. Našli pa smo tudi nekaj podobnosti. Prva izhaja iz začetka gibanja, ko so aktivisti za moške pravice skupaj s feministi trdili, da patriarhat in tradicionalne spolne vloge škodijo tako ženskam kot moškim. Druga podobnost pa je v postfeministični teoriji, ki se v veliko točkah sklada z nekaterimi prepričanji aktivistov za moške pravice. Odkrili smo tudi potencial za zavezništvo, in sicer v postfeministični teoriji in v skupnem delovanju zmernih predstavnikov obeh strani, kar bi se lahko v prihodnosti manifestiralo v skupnem gibanju za tranzicijo spolov oz. spolnih vlog. Men's rights activism has a rich and interesting history. It began at the same time as feminism, but due to ideological disagreements, the movements drifted apart. We identified two important differences in our master's thesis. The first one is the perception of patriarchy. Men's rights activists (MRA) claim that men suffer from a feminized society, where women have most of the power, while feminists argue that we still live in a patriarchal society that socializes individuals into traditional gender roles. The second difference is in the perception of the emergence of gender inequality. Men's rights activists argue that these inequalities arise from autonomous and individual choices made by individuals and not from gender-based structural repression, as feminists claim. We also found some similarities between the two. The first comes from the start of the movement when men's rights activists, along with feminists, argued that patriarchy and traditional gender roles hurt both women and men. Another similarity is in the postfeminist theory, which is on many points consistent with some of the beliefs of men's rights activists. We have also discovered a potential for an alliance both in post-feminist theory and in the co-operation of reasonable representatives of both parties, which could be manifested in a joint movement for transition of gender or gender roles in the future.
