Hey bros. To any male feminists on here, have you had any successful attempts at steering men away from anti-feminism or conservative thinking? I'm targeting this question at men because women aren't responsible for the work of "fixing" men. It goes without saying that de-radicalization is to be as effective as possible, men have to be the primary force behind it. That being said, if you aren't a guy and have done this kind of work successfully, please feel free to share your experience!
I'm asking this because even as a man, trying to explain anything remotely feminist to other guys is like pulling teeth. The minute I don't laugh at a weird joke or start talking earnestly about my political beliefs, most guys I've talked to shut down and stop listening to me because I've outed myself as some "male pick-me" or whatever. Has anyone dealt with other men like this and successfully got them to hear you out? Not to have some "i'M nOt lIKe tHe oThEr gUyS !!1!" moment but I feel like I'm living in a different world from these men. It's isolating.

Not a man (but a bro) and I definitely agree.
I teach teenagers and many of them, especially guys, really just need someone who listens with empathy, respects them, and challenges their beliefs with patience and kindness.
