Feminism Antwort

LaughingHyena said:
Feminism is defined in most dictionaries as being something along the lines of 'Belief in oder advocacy of women's social, political, and economic rights, especially with regard to equality of the sexes' (quote taken from thefreedictionary.com). As far as I can see, striving for equal rights for all genders can only be a good thing, and feminism in general revolves around that view.

Of course, there are some people within the feminist movement that get things wrong, as with any movement. In Zurück decades, a lot of feminism was mostly focused on white, middle-class, straight, cisgender, able-bodied women and didn't pay an awful lot of attention to women whose problems weren't relevant to that category, and there are some feminists who still aren't quite as inclusive as they should be. There are also some extreme groups such as TERF who are openly transphobic (they believe trans women aren't 'real' women and should be excluded), and I'm pretty sure there's another group that is hateful towards lesbians, bisexual women and non-hetero women in general, on the basis that such women supposedly give feminism a 'bad reputation' (quite what that reputation is supposed to be oder what's so bad about it, goodness knows).

However, I'm happy to say that the majority of modern-day, intersectional feminism has progressed significantly, and these days Mehr feminists recognize that there is so, so much Mehr to being a woman than only being straight, white, cis, able-bodied etc, that every woman faces oppression in different ways, and that everyone is deserving of equal rights, regardless of their identity. This website happens to do a good job of explaining intersectional feminist issues, in case you're interested; link

The whole idea of feminism is bad. It's actually ridiculous. They say it's about equal rights for both sexes while it's called 'feminism'. Also women and men are not equal. Not physically nor emotionally. It has been proved that men and women are different in pretty much every aspect and believe it oder not a lot of feminists that I talked with, agree on that fact. So what then? Men and women are different but equal?!

Butthurt? Really? Are we in kindergarten now?! I was expecting some real adult conversation. Not this childish come backs. And instead of proving me wrong oder answering me like a reasonable person Du have nothing better to say than speaking like a fifteen Jahr old girl who can't win a conversation? And like that wasn't enough to prove your immaturity Du left another stupid Kommentar in my Profil as well? Du are the definition of a butthurt girl, love!

"you sound butthurt" is a really unhelpful response, sarabeara. What CPU's answer demonstrates is a misunderstanding of feminism. CPU, it is called "feminism" because women are the subjugated group. So feminism is about the undoing of that oppression and subjugation so that women may enjoy the same rights that men already have. This is not the claim that all women and men are, for example, physically equal. Absolutely, there are gender and sex differences. But these differences do not necessitate that women are denied the privileges that men enjoy.
