That's not to say everything feminism has observed is false. Feminism has identified shortcomings in the thinking of the day, and brought to the attention of academics that women are a force in society as well. Fair's fair, if the purpose is understanding, then these observations are useful.
It's got a bit out of hand though, in my opinion. Feminists don't even seem to represent the majority of women, just a really angry minority.
But all this about masculinity to me seems over the top. It's one thing to theorize, it's another to make value judgments about men as a group. That's 3 billion people. Any term that generalizes such diversity is meaningless. Saying "men" are dominant, aggressive and powerful is as meaningless as saying women are manipulative, money hungry bimbo's.
