Blog 26 Feminism






Time and time again I see women being judged more harshly than men. What makes it even worse is that women are often the ones who judge other women more harshly than men. So why do men receive this sort of favouritism ? The answer is simple we have all been conditioned to think and behave in this way. I think it is about time we began to change and challenge these notions of inequality. Power to the people. When a man misbehaves he is called a typical male, however of a woman should do the same then she is called 'bad'. I strongly disagree with this nonsense and think we should make serious changes in the way people think. Women are also paid a quarter less for doing the same job as men. Many women who go on maternity leave find that once they are back at work their employer finds a way to make their job vacancy disappear, so they find themselves unemployed. Attitudes must change and soon. Women make up a larger percentage of the work force than previously. I cant believe discrimination such as this still exists. By the way a feminist is not someone who hates men, I am a feminist and I don't hate men at all. A feminist is someone who believes that a women should have the same rights as men.Women should have social and political and economic equality. Yes I do believe some men are physically stronger than most women. There are Feminist men who believe that women should be treated as an equal to men.
