What in the world is a feminist???????

Question

i always hear people saying that word but i have no idea what it means. can somebody explain it to me?

Answer 1

It is a type of thinking now! It first started during women's liberation in the 60's with the bra burning and the free love ere. Now it is just out of control! The reason feminism really began and formed feminist was because of the government or the elite. The Rockefeller's funded Ms Magazine(magazine that started the feminism movement) through the CIA, with help from the Rothschild's from England and the rest of the Illuminati round table. It was formed for a mechanism of control for 2 reasons, extra tax dollars and destruction of the family unit. Both forms of control!

Answer 2

A feminist believes that women are equal to men: that they should receive equal pay, equal job opportunities, equal rights overall. They also place emphasis on being a 'strong woman' who does not need a man to complete her.

Some people take it too far, and become more militant...and basically believe that women are BETTER than men.

But feminism is responsible for much of our rights in this country, including the right to vote.

Answer 3

At one time it was a person who wished for equality.  In the modern era, the term has been corrupted; a Femist is one who regards men as evil human beings and opposes freedom of expression or views to the contrary.

Answer 4

A flee, that needs a host, and the collective

Answer 5

It[s females and males who seek the reality that the differences in the

natural abiities of gender are different but equal.  It includes the belief

that equal effort deserves equal renumeration, and that education provide the equal opportunity for both genders to matriculate in.  

Answer 6

the above comment is completely true. feminism is often misconstrued as some neo-facist L*****n hate all men movement but it is not, that is simply a stereotype.

Answer 7

A feminist believes both men and women should have equal opportunities economically politically and socially. Both men and women are feminists and have been at far back as when people fought for women to have the right to vote in the 1800's. Women didn't get the vote in the US until 1920.

Answer 8

someone who advocates equality as though it gives us reasons to act.

Equality is a gauge to when things are level, that's it.. equal rights is equality, equal opportunities is equality, equal outcomes is equality.

We accept some and deny other forms of equality because of equity (fairness). It is fair that women have the same opportunities as men and the same basic legal rights. It isn't fair to give everyone the same outcomes because that's communism

Answer 9

Ideally, Feminism means that women should receive equal OPPORTUNITY as men in society.  Notice that I did not say that they have a RIGHT to be equal.  There is a difference in that statement and knowing it will decide whether you are a feminist or a communist.
