Egalitarian 

Somebody who believes in equality for all, without devaluing one over another.
A term not to be confused with Feminism nor the MRA. It is not the same thing.

An idiot called “Only Sane Man” is anything but. He falsely implies that white straight cis gender males are excluded from egalitarianism, and to pander to them by including them under the term is misogynistic. This is false. Feminists are attempting to redefine the term to be exclusive rather than inclusive which is not in line with the core principles of egalitarianism.

Egalitarianism is a separate term to feminism and MRA etc. To break down that final barrier to include everybody, to condemn all unjust bigotries wherever it may lie. To emphasise and learn compassion for all, and treat everybody as equals with the same respect, not one over another.

It is not the same as the more exclusive MRA, and likewise not the same as the more exclusive feminism either. Both are just as exclusive who often spends too much time attacking each other. Egalitarianism fights for both women and men equally without prejudice, to treat both as equals that “equally acknowledges” that both genders faces serious discrimination.

But it is much more than that. It includes race, disability and lgbtq equality too, and even shock horror equality for white straight cis men whenever they’re discriminated against, even if only once. It is about treating everyone by how you wish to be treated yourself, without prejudice.

There is no such thing as positive discrimination under Egalitarianism. All discrimination is negative.
