The Feminist

I think everyone should be equal. but if were honest about Feminist "Most" not all dont care about equal rights. They use that as a reason to force there anger out on to men so they can feel better about them self. Theirs nothing wrong with finding a way to cope with your problems unless its hurting others or you. Everyone has opinions everyone whats herd but its not gunna always happen im not making this men against women. but men are not perfect neither are women no body is. My Point "most" Feminist just want the attention.

I think youre talking about extreme feminists here. Just a regular good ol feminist I think is someone who means well, just doesnt have the knowledge they need to know that feminism is bullshit. EXTREME FEM's are the issue, free bleeding is not activism. They would rather fight for the removal of sexual objectification in video games, rather than fight for women who have their genitals mutilated in the middle east.

Fem's love to say that men are privileged when in reality we all are, this is the US one of the most kiss ass countries in the world.

It's very hard to treat two genders equal when they're both completely different.

That's not to say that one gender is better than another, it's just that people are generally biased towards one gender more than another in different situations. Lots of people would think worse of a man hitting a woman than a woman hitting a man and that's nothing to do with society, even if we gave equal sentences people would still think that way and nothing would change.

I think that some of the feminists have the right idea but most of the time they're focusing on something that's completely irrelevant and not a first priority. If they truly wanted equality, they would campaign for false rape allegations to be taken more seriously and a bunch of other things that nobody seems to notice. If they actually cared about equality, they would focus on men's issues as well as woman's issues and not stupid things like trigger warnings and safe spaces.

Feminism is certainly necessary. It seems that you all have a rather narrowed view of feminism, that is constrained to western societies. However, the momentum that feminism gains in these societies that have "freedom," benefits many women in other parts of the world. We still live in a world where an eighteen year old girl can get shot by extremist for promoting education for women. Young girls are trafficked at alarming rates around this world. Working women still make less than men (wage gap). I would definitely say that MOST feminists care about equal rights; it's just that your "most" is geographically restricted.

Firstly, there's no such thing as the gender wage gap. It's completely illegal to pay one worker less than another worker based solely on their gender. If this did happen, the companies doing this would get so much negative media attention and so many court cases that it simply wouldn't be worth it.

I'm not even going to go into how companies would only hire woman if this was true and men wouldn't be able to get jobs because woman would be able to do them for cheaper.

You can watch this video if you still believe it's true and it should clear it up.




A feminist is someone who campaigns towards equality for woman and there's simply no need for it in the west. We're all equal here and if anything, men have less rights than woman especially regarding domestic violance and rights to children.

I'm fully for feminism in the more poorer countries who have completely different rules and laws, however there's a lot more problems in those countries than just woman's rights.

Gender pay gap is defined as, the average difference between men's and women's aggregate hourly earnings.

Here's some credible sources that show statistics on that:

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

This does exist. What you're referring to is wage discrimination, based on sex.

Feminism in the US is actually still needed. Especially when we have a major political party that firmly stands behind a religion that openly supports limiting the freedom of women. Imagine a world where women did not empower each other, but instead listen to the words of the Quaran, or the Bible. Go Google some of the recently proposed legislation that'll limit women's rights.

I'm aware of the difficulties associated with domestic violence, and the bias in favor of women in regards to child custody disputes. As a male, these are likely to affect me in the future; and as a black male, I'm certainly aware these won't work in my favor, unless I happen to be rich. However, neither of these support reasoning behind dismantling feminism in westernized countries. Feminism in the economically poorer countries would be a failed movement, without the support of feminist in westernized countries. Gender (and general) inequality is able to thrive in these poorer countries because citizens lack the resources to share their stories. The only way to do so is to leave their family, and flee the country; which is easier said than done.

Supporting one movement does not imply the lack of support another. Obviously, with every movement there are those that are extremist, or frankly, idiots; whom of which misrepresent a movement.

If you're going to say that men earn more than woman on average, then you're true.

That has absolutely nothing to due with discrimination or sexism though and it's completely based off their life choices. Woman carry children and spend months off work on maturnity leave which dramatically reduces their income. On average men do earn higher but as I said it has absolutely nothing to do with any form of equality issue so there's really no need for feminism to get involved. It's completely down to life choices and men generally earn more than woman on average.

The world is a pretty unlucky place. Some people are born rich, some poor, some disabled and so on. It makes no sense though, that I have to watch feminism riots and parades about things such as safe spaces and trigger warnings just so that people who are poor and live on the other side of the world can have a chance of being inspired to fight their own battle. Especially when there are people starving in countries like Africa. I'd rather have not very many rights than have no food or water.
