Are feminists really pro-boy?

I read an article yesterday called "War Against Boys" by Michael Kimmel. Overall the article overall was a little unsettling to me but the last paragraph made me laugh outloud as I read it. The feminists referred to in this article are radical feminists. Maybe I am wrong, tell me what you think.

"....feminists believe that men are better than that, boys can be raised to be competent and compasionate, ambitious and attentive, and that men are fully capable of love, care, and nurturance. It's feminists who are really "pro-boy" and "pro-father"- who want young boys and thier fathers to expand the definition of masculinity and to become fully human."
