Antifeminism
Antifeminism, also spelled anti-feminism, is opposition to some or all forms of feminism. In the late 19th century and early 20th century, antifeminists opposed particular policy proposals for women's rights, such as the right to vote, educational opportunities, property rights, and access to birth control. In the mid and late 20th century, antifeminists often opposed the abortion-rights movement and, in the United States, the Equal Rights Amendment. In the early 21st century, some antifeminists in the United States see their ideology as a response to one rooted in hostility towards men, holding feminism responsible for several social problems, including lower college entrance rates of young men, gender differences in suicide and a perceived decline in manliness in American culture. 21st century antifeminism has sometimes been an element of violent, far-right extremist acts.

Antifeminism is an ideology or belief system that opposes feminism and its concepts, such as gender equality, women's rights, and social, political, and economic equality of the sexes. Individuals who align with this ideology often reject or challenge the efforts and goals established by the feminist movement, including breaking gender roles, combating sexual harassment, and promoting women's empowerment. This opposition could be due to various reasons such as traditional beliefs, cultural norms, or personal convictions.
