Feminism. Oh, boy.
Feminism is probably one of the most controversial ideologies ever. People agree with in, people disagree with it. To me, feminism is simply equal rights upon everybody. Whether that person be a woman, a man, or someone pertaining to the LGBT groups, everyone should have equal rights. I believe it would make life easier for everybody, and not make so many controversial topics about so many things, especially regarding the LGBT community. As my dad famously said, "Why the hell is everybody making this stuff such a big deal? Just give them the rights and be over with it." I have to agree with my dad. Why does this stuff have to be such a big deal? Obviously everyone should be accepting of who a person is, but people have been committing suicide over these things. Suicide is never the answer. But these people make it such a big deal and so public that most people do not understand and before you know that you have a dead teenager because they couldn't handle it anymore. It has gone too far and maybe we all need to back off from it. Death is not the way people should handle with things, instead they should either learn to cope with it or deal with it on a non-fatal level. Back with feminism, it was interesting to see how crazy the first feminists when studying about this in AP World. A lot of them were radical, some throwing themselves in front of king's' horses and being trampled to death. Others were anarchists, and it was a little too crazy. It's nice to see that it isn't like that anymore, and that suffrage is now over, for the most part, with the exception with those man-hating "feminists" out there. I don't know. I don't agree with feminism 100% but for the most part I do, and I feel like that's acceptable. Regarding the one poster of the man that is saying feminism is encouragement for women to basically abandon the family is absurd. I believe that women are just as equal as men to go out and find their own careers, start their own families, etc. Feminism was definitely a right turn in the evolution of mankind, however, some things about it don't have to be extreme as they are or have been, such as these LGBT movements.
P.S. the reason the national salary between the two sexes is different is because it's the average of what women make compared to the average of what men make, and studies have shown that women generally (keyword generally) work more low-paying jobs. There are exceptions, of course, but they GENERALLY do. I suggest to learn more clearer to look up PragerU on YouTube in order to find out more. Though they are right-leaning, or conservative, they do make some excellent points.
