Why do most men think that feminism is about dominance and not equality? I'm here for a male perspective. I'm a female.

[It occurs to me that the “all sex with a man is rape” crowd were the flipside of Andrew Tate, a self-hating gay man who thinks he’s straight, but argues that all sex with a woman is weakening so just get one of your special bros to give you a hand job in a spirit of platonic masculine togetherness….]
Sorry, I’m a woman answering, but I think my perspective is useful because I’m a comparatively *old* woman. If you go back to the 1970s and ’80s there were several prominent feminists who were on the media and lot and who were what was called feminist-separatists. They *did* denigrate men and argued that, for example, *all* penetrative sex with a man was rape and consent was an illusion. A friend of mine born in the 1970s grew up on a feminist-separatist, women-only commune in Australia.
Nowadays such sexist feminists are extremely rare. I haven’t seen one since a Dianic (feminist-separatist pagan) I encountered about 20 years ago. But any man over about 40 will remember them, even if only subliminally.
