If there is one thing that has been going a little to far lately, it is feminism. Now, don't get me wrong, I think men and women should have equal rights. And yes, I'm for equality, but it seems that a lot of these feminists (not all), are taking things a little on the extreme side.
Watch this 5 minute video...It shows a lot:
Now with that being said, one thing I have been seeing constantly in real life, on youtube, or just around me in general, is that a lot of these feminists are a little too extreme. Yes, they say that they want equality, but they abuse men and want to have more than men, which isn't equality. Not all feminists are like that, but a lot of them are.
See the thing is, there is an unspoken rule: Men aren't allowed to hit women no matter what. And I do not condone hitting women, but the thing is, a lot of women now are exploiting this rule and using it against men so they can abuse them. I see it so much in videos and all over the place. If a women pulls a knife on a man or is threatening your life, the man has every right to do something about it. But, if the women slapped the dude for being rude or something small and unimportant, men, please let it slide. I've seen extreme sides from the men's side too where they are just so easy to hit a woman. I think both sides really need improvement.
This logic is so true! Check it out :
I think men and women need to start to learn to stop being so extreme. Both sides are getting a little too extreme, men hitting woman so easily, and women provoking men. And men, stop being so extreme with women and don't be so quick to hit one either, and women, don't try to act like a guy and be on a guy's level and try to challenge them physically because it won't end well. If you want to be a man, you will be treated like a man. But honestly, there is NO equality from both sides.
What is really sad is both sides are being extreme and no one can just have a mutual respect for each other.
Women living in the United States today have it easier than any other humans in history.

but feminism and crazy people hiting each other is not the same... xD
Love this vid.. Seen it last year...about a thousand times lolol
Every issue has extremes on either side. I think that we are doing ourselves a huge disservice by focusing so much on these extremes. We either point to the opposite side's extreme and use it to negate anything and everything that side says and does. Or we are so entrenched in needing our side to be right that we turn a blind eye to our own side's extremes, even when we know they're wrong and dangerous.
In both cases, we lose.
It's not just the extremes but the assumptions as well. Whenever a statistic comes along that can be construed as negative towards women (e.g. the so-called wage gap, gender gap among software engineers, etc.) then it is immediately assumed that sexism is the cause. There are a lot of potential causes of such a statistic that could vary depending on how the statistics were collected. It isn't necessarily sexism and even if that is a factor it isn't necessarily the only or primary one.
There seems to exist an assumption that men and women should be statistically identical in everything. It's a pretty dumb assumption given that men and women have physical, biological and psychological differences and don't (on average) need, want or have the same drive for the same things. Of course a woman can be a Software Engineer. Of course a man can be a midwife. But should we expect that a statistically equal number of men and women will choose to pursue each of those career paths?
I'm certainly not saying that sexism doesn't exist or that it is ok. It certainly does and it certainly is not. I just feel that it is exaggerated at every opportunity and it doesn't do feminism as a movement any good.
Ya, I agree with you on this. If we claim that differences in wages, etc. are solely the result of sexism when that isn't the case, then it keeps us from finding and addressing the other causes.
Statistics are a good tool to identify where problems exist, but we still have to address those problems on an individual basis.
That said, most of the women I know -- myself included -- have experienced sexism at some point in their lives, so it certainly does exist and it certainly is a problem. And most of those women did not exaggerate the situation; in fact, they tried to downplay it because sometimes that's just easier then taking a stand and being labelled.
I am a woman and I agree with you. People need to work together rather than fighting over B.S. -And women want to be equal-of course, but physically we are not made the same and men can do some major damage easily to a woman with one punch...
I like girls and respect them, but if they gravely disrespect other people or demand respect for simply being female, then it simply shows their level of mental development and they deserve everything coming their way. Unfortunately the education system and modern Universities favour this zombification of the people in the US, and western nations in general.
It's just wonderful. I beg you to continue.
It is amazing how they all of a sudden want to be a woman after they get chin-checked. Rabid feminism didn't explain that part of the game to the women.
