Is feminism dead? Are women now "equal" to men?

Question

Yes, I meant in society's view. Women are far superior if you ask me, men are simple, aggressive, idiotic children. I should know, I am one.

Answer 1

It depends on how you define the goals of 'feminism' and 'equality'. It is also important to consider what does 'equality' mean? How is 'equality' satisfied? Can it be satisfied? If you define them in terms of economic and social parity, then the gap is definitely closing, at least within first-world countries. There are many places where women hold positions of both social and economic power undreamed of only 50 years ago. However, the fact that many of these positions are still considered 'novelties' suggest that broader social acceptance is only just beginning. It is also important to note that there will always be those who will never believe a woman is equal to a man, in any way, shape, manner, or form. At what percentage, then, do women become 'equals'? People become the equals of others when the realization sinks in that the 'others' are fundamentally human, just like them. That holds true whether the consideration is social, biological, racial, or sexual. So equality begins, and ends, on an individual basis.

Answer 2

Afraid so but was feminism really in and yes women are equal, if not then they should be.
But in today's society some woman take their superiority way beyond all reasoning, in power they tend to be unrealistic and waver to their feminine whims not all just the few.

Answer 3

Maybe in some countries, but i can assure you, the days are counting down when women will be walking right beside her counterpart, considered an equal as as it was from the beginning. It was sad to even consider women any lesser, we are all equal and to think otherwise is ignorant.

Answer 4

i'm no longer a Feminist, nor am I anti, yet i do no longer pander to the two of them. There are extra anti Feminist issues I consider yet it is my very own opinion and consider-no longer my pandering to adult adult males. in line with probability that distinctive Feminist can no longer draw close the thought of different political evaluations. some Feminists certainly do-the extremist ones, for constructive. only like some extremist antiFems are very bitter and offended and female hating, some Fems are bitter and offended and guy hating. yet some isn't all on the two component of the controversy. For that distinctive Feminist, who knows? probable? or perchance only can no longer fathom that someones opinion is distinctive. Who knows without understanding the context and question/solutions. Or being waiting to verify minds.

Answer 5

The binmen and the builders & coalmining and all the heavy duty or dirty jobs should all be done by women to PROVE they are equal to us,

female equality seems to = taking your pick of the nicest jobs.

Answer 6

Women will only be equal to men when they can write their name in the snow.

Answer 7

Only when they want to be. They still TRY to use there sexuality to gain advantages. But don't like it when they come off second best.
