What is Feminism? – Guillermo

Based on the google search of Feminism, Feminism is, “the advocacy of women’s rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes”. Based on this definition, I definitely agree with it. There is no reason why men and women shouldn’t be on an even playing field, and nobody should be turned down just because of their gender.

The problem is that some media portrays feminism as a man-hating agenda that is used to create an unequal playing field on the other side, when in reality that’s a small minority and majority of people just want equality. This is supported in the reading “Bad Feminist” by Roxanne Gay, and she states, “When feminism falls short of our expectations, we decide the problems is with feminism rather than with the flawed people who act in the name of the movement”
