For example workplace harrasment by women towards males like touching or groping being ignored because the victim is male but if it where to happen to a woman by a male the male would be fired

Men are in a kind of catch-22. Women say they want one thing but their actions usually say they want the opposite.

Not really. It's quite easy to understand. They generally want feminism when it benefits them, but traditional gender roles when it benefits them.

I don't blame them though, I also want things that benefit them. But it's a dick move to do it with feminism, which is supposed to mean equality.

It's not equality when they can pick and choose when to be equal.

Isn't egalitarianism the term for equality?

[–] calcopiritus 1 points 3 weeks ago

NGL I searched the term. Egalitarianism is about all people.

Feminism is only about eliminating the unfair inequalities between men and women.
