I think its one of those cases where its good in theory but the practice has been bastardized to hell.oppp7 said:No, we aren't. Women still have to deal with shit that men don't have to, and you can't say the same about the opposite. I have no idea why everyone on the internet is so against feminism.
I mean you ask most people do you think men and women should be equal, and most people are going to be like of course, are you insane to suggest otherwise.
And yet a good chunk of the world cries this but still enacts "tradition". Ask a woman who should pay for dinner or a date, most are going to say the guy. Women expect gifts and other stuff from their boyfriends like flowers. I'm sorry but in this equal society where I'm making like 40k and you're making 40k why am I required to incur these extra costs? Oh because we're supposed to be gentlemen and fawn over you?
Granted not every female is like this, but it is things like this that are still widely prevalent in the western culture and ends up feeling a bit hypocritical to many men. It's like the whole argument of race back in the day. Separate but equal, oh yes it is separate and the illusion of equal is there but it isn't equal. In the case of feminism, sadly, many people practice not only equal, but better.
