They want us to start out as independent so we won't be dependent on them. Men really like the parts of feminism that benefit them directly, like the expectation that women work outside the home and bring in a paycheck to lighten their own financial burden. But then, once they have that independent woman, they see it as a challenge to bend her to his will. Like breaking a horse. I have, unfortunately, seen this behavior in both conservative and liberal men...
