The feminism movement was created for equality, now it’s oftentimes used to promote superiority of women or degradation of men. We are completely missing the original point of equality and this is why men are pissy ab feminism.

I don't think so 😭 i think if you feel 'degraded' you're just taking it a bit too personally tbh

Tbh I think it only feels that way for us because we’re used to being treated better and now we have to understand what being treated equitably feels like. Autobiographies from women in the past actually relate a lot to how some men say feminism makes them feel today. I suggest “A Room of One’s Own” by Virginia Woolf (1929)

It’s why I consider myself a feminist for sure, but not part of “third wave” feminism I guess you could say. A lot of what the movement is used for now is just “men bad” posting, and then people acts surprised when it has negative connotations. Equality is and should always be the goal.

yes, there is a whole epidemic of “kill all men” type of women nowadays, but i think men are far from being degraded. i see women like that equivalent to men that talk about “bitches” and their bodies like they’re objects. there are two sides of this
