Maybe my understanding of what gender equality and feminism are is a little off then.

Look forward to the debate hosted by sky news on international mens day discussing men’s rights and issues.

What happens if we all had a mens issues debate? You know the answer to that already i'm sure. It's happened in the past in murica. It was descended upon by loads of angry feminists calling them all pigs and misogynists etc.

Was just about to point that out.

Seems only women can discuss gender equality and feminism amongst themselves.
Men issues? What the hell is that?


what are women’s issues ?

I don't really care what happens if we have mens issue debate. in the same way that I, you, the OP and anyone else not involved in the womens event shouldn't really care what happens at it. too many people like yourself, and I don't mean that to be offensive, being concerned about something that doesn't actually concern them.

So gender equality doesn’t concern men ?

the event doesn't concern
Some men's issues for those who haven't heard this stuff before:
  • Circumcision (it's basically FGM for men)
  • Bias in family court (she takes your kids and your stuff)
  • Bias in prison sentences (men serve more time for the same crime)
  • Domestic violence (women get away with hitting men, men don't speak up)
  • Suicide (much higher suicide rate among men)
  • Military conscription (when it comes down to it, men do the jobs that result in death)
There are plenty more...

pleaae refer to the link above to see what happens when an event is organised to discuss the issues mentioned above. I imagine that event was open to all genders too.
