It is very clearly no longer about equality. Today, feminism is about earning more for working less. It's about gaining positions of power when it is undeserved. It's about forcing social change that is counter to biological tendencies (ie. wanting fat to be the new beautiful, or marketing things to people that don't want them). Today's version of feminism is useless, and should rightfully be shamed. |
Yep, and modern day Islam is all about terrorism. Way to take an extreme point of view and label and entire progressive movement with it. The only thing you just proved is your own ignorance.
How about the wage and corporate hierarchy discrepancies between men and women? Ever notice the massive discrepancies between the amount of male and female elected representatives? Domestic violence, pro-choice, rape, etc. are all issues that are addressed by "modern feminism." But you're right, none of those issues have any relevance in North America.
