All right, if you wish to chart the swirling tensions and complexities within the community of those who don't like feminism, check the latest from Bernard Chapin. You will find it to be a useful snapshot of the present historical moment:

A couple of points I will briefly note here. First point: BC is right on the money when he suggests that utopian thinking is bad, bad, nasty stuff that will only bring us grief.
Second point: Nothing could please me more than to see people of the political left turning against feminism - which, in growing numbers, they are indeed doing!
And you know what else? I am more than willing to at least chew the fat with those people. Foe of my foe, and all that sort of thing. I am a total conversation whore, and I will sit down for a li'l old chit-chat with anybody I please. Misogynists, feminists, left-wing, right-wing, druggies, saints, sinners, holy-rollers, anarchists, atheists, stiffnecks, rednecks, hard-asses, fat-asses - you name it! I don't mind saying that I have rubbed shoulders with some right colorful critters in my day, and I have learned a lot from the experience.
