Women who were neutral to feminism or anti-feminists in the past, could you explain the world-views you had?

Alright I made this account just to answer this for you.

I used to be an anti-feminist pickme because I had 0 self-esteem or self-worth and I wanted to be loved and accepted. If feminism was 'lame' and socially shunned, I thought 'well I'm not lame, see?? I'm cool and not a crazy SJW. I think men are awesome and women aren't oppressed!" I eventually realized through males' own behavior that they truly are the scum of the earth and their approval is the last thing I should be seeking.

TL;DR: Good old internalized misogyny.

I can't answer for why people with ASPD defend men; I can only speak for myself.
