Feminism is a Joke?

Feminism is the idea that women should have political, social, sexual, intellectual and economic rights equal to those of men.

Black feminism argues that sexism, class oppression, and racism are inextricably bound together.[78] Forms of feminism that strive to overcome sexism and class oppression but ignore race can discriminate against many people, including women, through racial bias. The Combahee River Collective argued in 1974 that the liberation of black women entails freedom for all people, since it would require the end of racism, sexism, and class oppression. One of the theories that evolved out of this movement was Alice Walker's Womanism. It emerged after the early feminist movements that were led specifically by white women who advocated social changes such as womans suffrage. These movements were largely white middle-class movements and had generally ignored oppression based on racism and classism. Alice Walker and other Womanists pointed out that black women experienced a different and more intense kind of oppression from that of white women.

Angela Davis was one of the first people who articulated an argument centered around the intersection of race, gender, and class in her book, Women, Race, and Class. Kimberle Crenshaw, a prominent feminist law theorist, gave the idea the name Intersectionality while discussing identity politics in her essay, "Mapping the Margins: Intersectionality, Identity Politics and Violence Against Women of Color".

Women's rights refers to freedoms and entitlements of women and girls of all ages.

LMAO. You don't work because you're black, you don't have an education because you're black!!!

<_< but seriously, a woman can go to school and get 2 scholarships, one for you and one for your cunt. Women on average work 7 less hours a week.

Women bitch and complain and blame everything on the "man" instead of taking their lives into their own responsibility.

@masterthehate2 LMAO..... you should work on your hate a little more... before claiming to be a master..... cuz what you said.... is ignorant....

Feminism IS a joke! Since when is it wrong for a woman to be a mother? Are you against biology? I fucking hate how Feminism shun women who choose to be mothers. Fucking assholes! Or answer me this: WTF do we even have Feminism in countries where women are empowered & treated equally? I have asked every Feminist this & none of them has given me a clear response.

Feminism = Sexism

@newworldodour Well those women are stupid, cuz there is nothing funny about that..... And it is these types of women that gave feminism the name it has today.... and the reason it is viewed in a negative light.

[lovie2000]

@xXToYeDXx All of those same scenario's are true for women too..... I know that for a fact.......

And don't even try to come back with but its more than women....... the fact remains that women deal with the same issues

@lovie2000 Women have less rights than men when it comes to sex and having kids, yet it's always a man taken away from his kids by the courts. Always a man who has to fight for the right to see his kid(s). Always a man who has to pay child support or alimony after a divorce. Always a man who has no shelter to go to after being attacked by some crazy psycho bitch. Always a man who can't rely on social programs for child funding. But then again "Boys are stupid. Throw rocks at them" right? Cunt

to me Feminism are women trying to be MEN ........................ BW should have focus on freeing there Race before working with the women that had BW as slaves and house keepers ........

@lovie2000 Well I do not want to impose any authoritative force, that would be very problematic in reinforcing male power structures. So I will just agree with you to disagree. Just think about it please. You seem like an awesome person from what I have seen on your page.

[lovie2000]

continued.... I may have misunderstood your comment..... if so please feel free to correct me.....

[lovie2000]

@amillan2004 Really? ..... well honey that's your opinion.... but the media has nothing to do with my ability or my thoughts..... they belong to me and I do what choose with it...... that is why I can stand for what I think and believe on my own..... the media has nothing to do with that..... and neither does feminism...

Thank you very much.....

@amillan2004 I have many years of education under my belt , it is you, my friend that refused to present any facts from reliable source;es to suopport your claim. Refusing to waste time teaching , equals you have no facts and you know it.

[amillan2004]

@lovie2000 The media and influenced pedagogical process of white supremacy, patriarchy and heteronormativity already got you on your ability to think for yourself.
