Living in my ivory tower of Canada where "male" procedures are covered as well as "female" procedures, what part of men's health is not covered in the ACA?

It mandates prescription contraceptive coverage and coverage for sterilization. Theres...not really many prescription options for male contraception. Most insurance companies do cover vasectomies (and in general male sterilization is easier to obtain than female sterilization), but it's true that the ACA was not clear enough to mandate co-pay free vasectomies and that's something we should change. I suspect that once more innovative male contraceptives come to market insurance companies will be mandated to cover them as well (and if they don't then I hope people raise hell). But in the mean time pregnancy, child birth, and contraception are all burdens that fall primarily on women due to biology. They are inescapable parts of being female so the ACA mandates that preventative medical care related to all this must be covered. Men simply do not face comparable health issues when they have sex or reproduce.

I mean, feminists advocate for women's right to have an abortion but they aren't advocating for a man's right to an abortion. This is kind of the same thing here.

Why weren't you pushing to have it cover men's health? I mean, aside from mandated coverage of preventative care for everyone, which it does?

I don't have a tumblr so I guess I'm missing out then!

I'm really curious what "female supremacy" would be like though. People accuse feminists of wanting female supremacy for wanting insurance that covers birth control pills and legal abortion. Because if women have control over being pregnant it's supremacy?

Tumblr also has people claiming to be half cat and can do magic spells. Forgive us if we don't think a subreddit specifically designed to find the worst of the worst on Tumblr is going to have a good representation of what real feminists have been doing in this country for more than 100 years.

And half of them will be Poe's law and people eating trolls's bait.

Just went through the first 15 submissions, couldn't find a single one.

Edit: Also most posts do not show anything indicating their feminist.

That's interesting. Are you saying that you are in favor of female supremacy?

Why the fuck should it? It was a movement established to help women get the vote, have some control over their lives and bodies, and allow them equal legal rights to those of men. How does that mission suggest that feminism should EXCLUSIVELY do anything for men, who have historically had all the power in society? Jesus fucking christ. Does it always have to be about men? You poor little thing.

Except, that's exactly what NEEDED to happen when first gen feminists marched. We're living in a different world today, sure, but that's largely due to past successes in getting equal rights for women.

The backlash movement feels contrived and directionless. I don't see actual legislation being lobbied for to correct these alleged inequalities; rather, there's just a lot of noise on the internet about how it's somehow the responsibility of feminists to fix all the issues for BOTH genders. I don't agree with that standpoint. Women identified the issues we wanted corrected and worked towards correcting them despite the obstacles in our way (a male-dominated government system that has historically always advantaged men). If men feel they are lacking rights in certain areas, then why isn't the answer to actually form a movement to get things done, rather than shout down feminists who they believe are somehow taking something away from them? All I see coming out of MRA movements is anger and vitriol (and a lot of spam messages) which drowns out the discussions men probably should be having. We still live in a world where a good 90% of people in control of the things that matter are men. One would think with that kind of backing more would actually get done.

I think it's really unfair to put the onus on women to fix all the issues for both genders.

Er, if one is more oppressed on the other, then wouldn't it make sense to try to help the more oppressed group catch up?

If Jane has 6 apples, and Jim has 10, giving Jane a few more apples isn't going to achieve equality?

Additionally, can you name a single, prominent, effective group that focuses on the issues of all groups? As far as I know, basically every activist and non-profit group focuses on the issues of one or a few groups or one aspect of issues that affect many groups. Probably because it's near impossible to try to fix everything at once on limited budgets with few staff.

Do a little thinking now, dude. Women were historically oppressed by men for several thousand years. Equality means lifting women up to that same lofty status as men. It does NOT mean lifting men higher as we rise. Use some critical thinking here. You can do it if you try. . . .

Tender Years doctrine is another which, ironically, is the whole reason we now think women should be primary caretakers of young children. The ironic part is because this is usually blamed on the patriarchy when it was actualy early feminist that created it in the first place.

Yeah, the Duluth Model isn't great, but I don't think many feminist organizations openly support it anymore. The last bout of support I saw of it was over a decade ago.

So, besides the Dululth Model, what else have feminists done? Get women into the workforce? Is that harmful to men? No longer being the sole breadwinners?

Pushed for women to be able to serve on the front lines of combat? Stealing men's thunder again?

Pushed for more equal wages? Stealin' men's money again?

I'm clearly an expert on how horrible people on reddit are.

And I don't know what you mean by "SJW issues," but I'm right about how MRAs are viewed in the real world.

I'm going to need a source on that, then, if it's something out in "the real world". Feminism in action today works with groups to provide science retreats for girls, keeps abortion clinics open and pushed courts to consider joint custody for children in a divorce rather than single custody (giving the antiquated idea that children are meant for women/mothers the boot). They opened up military positions for women. They gave women the right to open a credit card, buy a car or buy a house without her father or husband's permission. And this weekend there's a big rally in my city that's attempting to make it legal for a woman to be topless anywhere that a man is (mostly started by mothers wanting to nurse their kids without going into a nasty public bathroom.)

Internet feminism is about manspreading. Which, interestingly enough, hasn't gotten enough traction among the mainstream feminists to even garner a public meeting or speakers.

I don't know a single person in real life who doesn't want to be associated with the things that real-life feminists are accomplishing. I have known a couple radical feminists, but they're basically crazy idiots shouting nonsense into the void. Nobody takes them seriously in real life... well, nobody except for the people trying to discredit ALL feminism.
