MRA's (Mens Rights Activists) are extremely critical of feminism.

Here's the text of the National Organization for Women's proposed replacement for the ERA, the "Constitutional Equality Amendment"

Section 1. Women and men shall have equal rights throughout the United States and every place and entity subject to its jurisdiction; through this article, the subordination of women to men is abolished;
(Redundant language is redundant.)
Section 2. All persons shall have equal rights and privileges without discrimination on account of sex, race, sexual orientation, marital status, ethnicity, national origin, color or indigence;
(Sounds good, but this could have been accomplished by adding two words to the ERA.)
Section 3. This article prohibits pregnancy discrimination and guarantees the absolute right of a woman to make her own reproductive decisions including the termination of pregnancy;
(I find it a little intriguing that the absolute right of a woman to make her own reproductive decisions, apparently doesn't contemplate that she's making someone else's reproductive decisions too)
Section 4. This article prohibits discrimination based upon characteristics unique to or stereotypes about any class protected under this article. This article also prohibits discrimination through the use of any facially neutral criteria which have a disparate impact based on membership in a class protected under this article.
(The NOW website helpfully explains that this isn't as complicated as it seems. An employer hiring people to lift 75 lb objects can't make "ability to lift 75 lb objects" as a hiring criteria if this results in mostly men getting the job.)
Section 5. This article does not preclude any law, program or activity that would remedy the effects of discrimination and that is closely related to achieving such remedial purposes;
(So all laws which constitute inequality under the law are grandfathered in, provided they were written to benefit women.)
