*Feminist – a person who supports women having equal political, economic and social equality.
That being said, here’s what it doesn’t mean.
It doesn’t mean that I hate men. On the contrary, I married 4 of them and only hate 2 of my exes. That’s not fair, I don’t hate them, but I do dislike them.
It doesn’t mean that I think men don’t have issues. Men get beaten and raped and abused.
It doesn’t mean that I think all women are not capable of heinous acts. Women are just as capable of beating, raping and abusing. Feminist Andrea Dworkin let women off the hook when she said, men target women for not being men, but men don’t only target women. men also beat the shit out of each other. men rape each other. men kill each other. men treat each other like absolute shit. virtually all of the violence that occurs on this planet is committed by males, whether it’s committed against females or against other males. men tell us every day, in no uncertain terms, that they believe “equality” means “violence.” equality with these barbarians? I think not.
I don’t think this is entirely true, or fair.
Men definitely have it tough, what with being blamed for all the violence in the world. While men do commit the majority of the violent acts, women are guilty of violence towards each other, their partners, their parents, their children and pets. Think about the term domestic abuse. What comes to mind is likely this scenario
Which is unfair because, often it means this scenario.
Yes, ladies, we are violent too and we need to take responsibility for it. No matter the gender, people are capable of shitty things.
