    I do not think that men directly have a role in the struggle for women’s equality. Women’s equality is about women, which men obviously are not. Men are not struggling to get power like women are, so they do not truly understand the struggle that women have. The only way I can see men having trouble with women’s equality is being judged for supporting it. Most men are power hungry and don’t care about women’s equality, so those who do care may be shunned for being different.

    I believe there is a lack of education about men active in feminism because there are not enough impactful examples of situations of men active in feminism. There are less male feminists than female feminists so I think educators try to represent the majority rather than the minority. Feminism is about women so I think it is a stronger argument for feminism education to use the subject they are talking about as the examples. I also feel that men have more recently started supporting feminism so history books and lessons may not be updated enough to include men active in feminism.
