What is feminism ?

What is feminism ?

 

The radical definition of feminism is : The belief that women are and should be treated as potential intellectual equals and social equals to men. These people can be either male or female human beings, although the ideology is commonly (and perhaps falsely) associated mainly with women.

The basic idea of Feminism revolves around the principle that just because human bodies are designed to perform certain procreative functions, biological elements need not dictate intellectual and social functions, capabilities, and rights.

Feminists--and all persons interested in civil equality and intellectuality--are dedicated to fighting the ignorance that says people are controlled by and limited to their biology.

It is seems logical that men and woman are equals because they are human beings even they are different. The feminists fight against discrimination at work, or in society generally (the disrespect of men with them), the slut-shaming for example : it is a neologism used by Canadian feminists to describe the act of making any person feel guilty or inferior for certain sexual behaviors or desires that deviate from traditional or orthodox gender expectations so the slut-shaming is used against woman by both men and woman, it’s become a bullying phenomena and it is a perpetual fight for feminists. Of course, there are progressions but a lot of details have to be solve, too (ex: In politics) and it is thanks to authors, and women fighters that women are considers as free and independent woman and change the face of the feminists, who are just fighting for equality, who can be girly and classy and fight for their rights.

 

 

If we back in time feminists win a lot of fights: the voting right, the abortion… like it was not logical, and that’s the problem of our society, it is not logical to be a free and independent person as a woman, even in advertising we see the difference between men and woman, advertising devellop sexists notions, and the image of the ideal woman: woman are more stupid than men, woman represent the sexuality, but being a woman don’t mean that : a woman should be naked, or represent like that, it is a false idea. Men should be at the place of the woman, for understand that’s not our roles.

Woman are not objects, they can be what they want to be, they can do what they want to do or become like a men, a woman is not : a daughter, a wife, it’s someone who like a men can have desires, dress like she want, and being herself and don’t be ashame of that.
