Feminism

"What we look like is more important than what we do, if we get raped it's our fault, if we get bashed we must have provoked it, if we raise our voices we're nagging bitches, if we enjoy sex we're nymphos, if we don't we're frigid, if we love women it's because we can't get a 'real' man, if we ask our doctor too many questions we're neurotic or pushy, if we expect community care for children we're selfish, if we stand up for our rights we're aggressive and 'unfeminine', if we don't we're typical weak females, and if we want to get married we're out to trap a man, if we don't we're unnatural, because we aren't deemed responsible enough to decide if, when and how we give birth"
-Joyce Stevens, 1975

Equality, plain and simple.

Feminism

We live in a society where men are thought as the key to humanity. But that is wrong. Women are not what they are percieved as. We have Jane Austen-one of the most highly esteemed writers,Rosie the rotweieler who showed women who and what they are capable of. Then there's good old Queen Lizzie 2nd who has now taken over Queen Victoria as the longest reigning monarch. Women don't want to be seen as better than men but equal as, not something to amuse them or take out on but as a equal.

bloody ridiculous, feminism is women trying to gain equality in the world. not women trying to out-do men at all.

extreme feminists, on the other hand, are idiots because they:re taking on aggressive masculine traits to portray their views - completely denying their femininity. pointless.

active feminism is stupid beacuse it just shows insecurity in society:s placement of women, they can;:t accept that women are considered as a lesser form than men. women are profficient where men are defficient and visa versa.

Women shouldn't be treated any more or any less, but to be treated the same as men? Lets be honest ladies, do we treat guys in the same way we treat girls? Deal is we're not the same or the inequality wouldn't have been created to begin with, accept. Don't give attention to it, if you believe men and women are the same don't sit there complaining or campeigning about it, actions speak louder.

I quote

"I myself have never been able to find out
precisely what feminism is: I only know
that people call me a feminist whenever
I express sentiments that differentiate
me from a doormat."

Feminism? Really?

It makes me feel sad to say it, but to be upfront, honest and blunt outright, most females dont even know what real feminism is, or what it was meant to achieve. The majority of true feminists, especially those who originally fought so hard in the past to try acheive it, would seriously roll in their graves today to see how its been translated and used as an excuse for things that it was never meant to stand for.

Too many girls now sad reality think feminism constitutes being like Jordan or Jodie Marsh, and the Jades, page 3 idiots and what not in this world, and lets not forget footballers wives etc etc (and for the dim page3 wannabes who may somehow come across this page, no theyre not feminists infact theyre playing into the old female stereotype of the only things a women can do, ie playing into a mans hands). Oh and lets not forget the Suicide Girls when it comes to the Alt scene. Its pathetic and when you hear most females now theyre the exact thing we never wanted a woman to be, too many of our female counterparts are actually the bipolar opposite of a true feminist or strong empowered woman who can challenge the men of this world, and when you actually whittle it down, are weaker and less intelligent etc and less in control than we ever could have been, may i also say fitting the old "women only good for" stereotypes more than before. lol

I slightly blame the wrong media role models now, and id like to say that was the main problem, but it isnt, the main problem is the lack of understanding of what it is to be a true feminist, and a strong powerful woman who is an equal or superior to a man in all the RIGHT ways, not playing into their hands or just imaginary/deluded fantasist feminists like too many today who dont have the bottle to admit how weak, unindependent, unsuccessful and unequal they really are when it comes down to it, they just wave the word about, with no true understanding of it, or being able to comprehend it accurately or its psychology.

My advice to the young girls out there who think theyre feminists or have a basic understanding, stuff all this i wannabe a suicide girl/page 3/kept girl by using my body or getting a rockstar bf etc crap, that tells us the opposite about you, and instead do something that actually proves you have balls, and can compete with men. You want a real challenge try law, i did, and when you come up against that old boys club thats when you really realise how strong and capable you can be as a female, whilst sticking your fingers up at all those tossers who did the whole "she should be under my desk or over it" and the "oh shes a female, shouldnt she be the secretary, she cant possibly be a barrister" crap. Save your naughty photos for your private life or spare time lol

I think that man and woman should be treated the same no matter when, where, why or by whom. Woman should be suported when she decides to do what she loves. If she wants to repair cars she should do that and no one should say "What? You can't do that! It is a mans job!"
Also man should do some 'woman' things like taking care of the new born baby, cleaning, cooking. Man and woman are not = if a woman works and when she comes home and works alot more.

my view

Women having exactly the same rights as men.

"Feminism is the radical new motion that women are people" I wrote my dissertation of feminism, so i wont bore you with my findings/history or details, but feminism is made up of several different factors or social issues.

I have to add though, it annoys me when people assume feminism is only for "butch man haters" but its not, its the reason why we can vote, wear trousers and choose to have an abortion.

feminism is supposed to be about equality. Both men and women should be viewed as equals. At the same time we should realize that there is a difference between men and women and have respect towards each other. Modern feminism usually separates women from men when we need unity.

its more about no social distinction between men and women. we're both just humans. and should be treated equally. in an ideal world, people would embrace the fact that we are all one race, and one species, and hurting others is just hurting ourselves.
