I Am A Feminist Because I Believe In Equality

I Am A Human Too!

By: DenteAvvelenato
Written on March 22nd, 2012
Feminism is about equality. Its goal is to have the female as well as the male perspective given equal voices. If we live in a society that is dominated by either sex we do not get the full experience of human life.

      Are you asking out of curiosity or is this a insult?

    That's a big reason I created this group, to show this voice of feminism. Instead of arguing with them endlessly I am trying something new. I want to have this group full of the positive messages and ideals that feminism promotes and fights for.



    I hope you will all help me!

      @runner comparing feminism to the KKK is really offensive. There is good and bad in every group, and has been since the begining of time. I feel feminism has done much more good than harm. I also feel its not perfect and we have have to continue to work on many issues. I am not going to start a new group or join another group, I am going to continue to work within my group with other members to improve it.

      A lot of people think Americans are bad and cause more harm than they do good. Should we just stop being Americans? Or should we strive to be better Americans?

    I have always believed that equality was at the core of feminism. The freedom to pursue life goals despite one's gender. The right to human rights regardless of gender. The acknowledgement that we are all equal, all capable regardless of sex and should be granted equality of opportunity. I still believe in feminism.

    It is so disheartening to know that a movement that was as powerful and positive as the civil rights movement has been highjacked by those who "see" only the very few "radical feminists" of decades past and choose to believe that that is what feminism is.

    Your are an intelligent woman and I applaud you.
