What is Feminism?

Feminism is a cultural, political, and social view of the way we should treat and bestow rights upon women.

 * This is an important concept for this century because sexist people still exist. **

It is completely possible that the view of women in society is merely a trend and as they climb to the top of social ladder, latter generations cripple their rights and they regress over time. Regardless to say feminism is strictly upheld by preconceived notions created by society that portray women as mothers and second best to the husband, but in all fairness this is incredibly accurate. It has been scientifically proven that men and women embrace different actives from birth and girls are known to be nurturing and passive as men are known to be aggressive and overall less nurturing. I fully support the idea that women should have equal rights as men but in hindsight the jobs are passions men and women have in life are different, this is not sexist because we are built differently. A women being a stay at home mom is completely fine in my eyes because mothering is a role to many women that gives them much more joy than other job ever could. I support the idea that women should have equal rights as we all are human, however I do not support what modern-day feminism which is no longer equality for all, it is purely women attempting to suck as much power from "male roles" as humanly possible. //-Jessica Schiff//

 * [|Karen]**: They were real that day I wore a vest!
 * [|Regina]**: Because that vest was disgusting!

 * [|Regina]**: [//pause//] These sweatpants are all that fits me right now.

Feminism is largely misunderstood or at least treated as irrelevant, which is clearly exemplified by the lines above from //Mean Girls// movie. Feminisim has to do with the inequality between genders, but feminism is more than gender inequality. //-Glen Coco//

Feminism is a movement that has greatly focused on the inherent equality of men and women socially, politically, and economically. It has professed sentiment to those who feel as if they are 'second class citizens' or inferior to men. It does not, for the most part, acknowledge the differences between men and women that make each sex better at certain things. They stress the importance of equal opportunity, which is a good thing, but the pressure to 'break the mold' and be unnecessarily empowered (in certain situations where it is not exactly appropriate) can be both intimidating and frustrating to women at times. - Anonymous
