I can understand those feelings. I am more of a conservative on the political spectrum, and wouldn't quite identify as a progressive, so our experience, I think, could be different. Regardless, I do feel a duty to my fellow humans, to be respectful, honorable, and caring. However, if you start believing all of this "microagression" baloney, you will either implode on yourself with shame, or feel like you should become "callous" and discount this perspective. There is no way you can implement someone's recommendations for your behaviour when they basically condemn everything you are and do - apart from dying. Which, let's face it, some radical feminists have advocated.

My biggest frustration with the movement is the abhorrent anti-intellectuality of modern feminism. You cannot disagree with a woman without being potentially accused of misogyny, but women can use terms like "mansplaining" willy nilly and never be taken to task over it. Feminists will go on for hours about how they are "silenced" by the "patriarchy", but you can't have a moderately intelligent conversation challenging their opinions without being told to be quiet, because you're a man and can't possibly understand anything about anything. The overt sexism, racism, and heterophobia of feminists towards white, straight men can only lead me to conclude that they are either too self-righteous to admit they have faults, or that they are too lazy intellectually to assess the weaknesses and hypocrisy of their own position.
