LETS ANSWER THE QUESTION:
DO WE NEED FEMINISM IN 2020?
ans: NO, NOT REALLY.
IS FEMINISM STILL RELEVANT?
ans: NO, NOT REALLY.
To Know why I think that we really don't need feminism ( modern feminism ) today in our society, you first have to know when and why different waves of feminism were started.
((IF YOU ALREADY KNOW, YOU CAN SKIP THOSE PART))
Here, they are:
First Wave of Feminism : It was started in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The goal of this wave was to open up opportunities for women, with a focus on suffrage and to improve the social, civil, and religious condition and rights of women. Example: RIGHT TO VOTE
Second Wave of Feminism:
The second wave started in the 1960s and continued into the 90s. The goal was to fight against "the systemic sexism that taught women that their place was in the home and that if they were unhappy as housewives, it was only because they were broken and perverse". It fought against the culture of sexually objectifying women in society.
Third Wave of Feminism: Third wave of feminism began in 1991 and some say it still exists. The main aim of this movement was to fight against all the sexual harassment in and out of the workplace.
BUT.... The difference between the second and third wave of feminism is that the second wave of feminism was fought to be called women rather than girls. I will explain what I mean by this:
Women who fought during the second wave were grown adults fighting for equal treatment and rights in the society where as in the Third Wave of feminism, they liked being called girls rather than women. They were making themselves powerful and even dangerously threatening .
The third wave of feminism started going against the philosophy of the second wave of feminism.
The second wave of feminism rejected being objectified by rejecting all the feminine products like makeup, high heels, shorts, etc. where as "Girls" started all those feminine stuff that were rejected by second wavers because they thought femininity has the same worth as the masculine has. They started empowering femininity and also started using it against men to some extend.
NOW, COMES ALMIGHTY FOURTH WAVE OF FEMINISM cough!! cough!!
Basically, it is an online version of feminism where girls can label anyone as sexist, rapist, racist, misogynists' on social media like Facebook, Twitter ( #METOO ). Not only that, this movement is against people who FAT-SHAME fat people. Like seriously? is that even an issue? It is also encouraging people for self-acceptance ( Fat acceptance cough!!). And technically is now a man-hating philosophy and spreading hate against men.
“The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism, and become lesbians.”
Lets, cut the crap and come to the point.
SO,.. WHAT I WANT TO SHOW YOU GUYS HERE IS, LOOK HOW DANGEROUSLY THE ORIGINALITY OF "FEMINISM" WHICH IS EQUALITY WITH EQUITY HAS BEEN MANIPULATED OVER YEARS INTO MAN HATING CONCEPT. TODAY, FEMINISM IS NO MORE RELATED TO EQUALITY BETWEEN GENDERS BUT IS THE GAME OF POWER.
NOW, LETS BE SERIOUS AND ANSWER SOME MORE QUESTION.
1. WHAT WOMEN GOT AFTER ALL THESE MOVEMENTS? (EXCEPT THE NONSENSE FOURTH WAVE OF FEMINISM)
1. EQUAL LAW & RIGHTS? : Do women have equal rights as men do? Answer is NO. A BIG FAT NO. Truth is women have more rights than just equal rights than men and legally protected by diff laws which are frequently being used against men. False rape charges, False sexual harassment charges, false dowry accuses to the men and men's family and many more are the proof that today women are more powerful than men legally. IF ANY MAN READING THIS , NEXT TIME BEFORE TALKING WITH ANY GIRL, BE CAREFUL OF YOUR WORDS BECAUSE YOU COULD BE IN JAIL IN NO TIME FOR EVE-TEASING.
2. ARE WOMEN STILL LESS PRIVILEGED & VULNERABLE? :
With all these powers & facilities given to women for their protection legally has made women the most privileged and most powerful species of humankind. They can destroy the life of any man, destroy any business empire just in a blink of an eye with a magical word "RAPE" (false accuse). If this not being powerful then I don't know what is. And with all those law which were meant for the protection of women, now the men are the one who seems to be vulnerable and needs protection. BEING A MAN IN THIS WORLD IS NOT THE SAFEST OPTION YOU HAVE TODAY. MAYBE, THAT IS WHY NUMBER OF TRANS WOMEN ARE INCREASING DAY BY DAY ( JUST KIDDING 😅😅).
3. WAS FEMINISM RELEVANT DURING FIRST AND SECOND WAVE?
Honestly speaking, "yes". The movement was crucial at that time because women were treated as a slave at that time. Hence, the motive behind the feminism movement was relevant and was necessary.
We cannot deny the fact that those movements play a very strong role to achieve the equal society we live in today.
4. SINCE WOMEN GOT ALL THE RIGHTS (MORE THAN EQUAL) THAT THEY FOUGHT FOR THEN WHY DO WE STILL HAVE FEMINISM?
Try asking a modern feminist, haven't you got equal opportunities like men do? Do your parents discriminate against you and your brothers? Guess what, their answer will be "It is not about me it is about other girls who are suffering". Truth is they themselves have no idea about people they are talking about. They just believe in mainstream media and other feminists who follow the mainstream media.
All they have done in their life is marching for rape victims and sharing posts about feminism on social media. But we do have some organizations that are working for the welfare of women the society.
Some might say, the girls or women living in urban or developed regions got the opportunity but girls living in rural or underdeveloped regions haven't still got even basic opportunities and that is the reason why we still need feminism. So-called modern feminists need to know that in the rural region of our country, not only girls but also boys are not getting the basic rights.
Thing is feminism is not the solution to such problems anymore but education is. Education can solve all the problems that we have today in our society. Education is the only answer to social issues like discrimination and any other crime
. ALSO, VERY IMPORTANT THING SO-CALLED FEMINISTS NEED TO KNOW IS WE PEOPLE DO NOT PROMOTE HATE OR DISCRIMINATION BASED ON GENDER, WE PUT THOSE KINDS OF PEOPLE BEHIND THE BAR. OUR LAWS ARE COMPLETELY AGAINST SUCH ACTIVITIES. ALL WE NEED NOW IS PROPER AWARENESS AND CHANGE IN THE THOUGHTS OF PEOPLE WHICH CAN BE ONLY ACHIEVED BY EDUCATING PEOPLE.
This is the reason why I believe we do not need feminism anymore.
HENCE, SAY YES TO EDUCATION AND NO TO FEMINISM
Feel free to comment below: I am open to any opinion.
