Feminist can be said to be a group of persons with similar views, ideologies and social movements that shares a common goal. Which seeks to establish gender unification awareness, achieve political, economic, and social equality. This includes the establishment of societal, educational and professional platforms for women to make them equal to those task peculiar to the men folks.

Feminists movements, historically has been the main pillar behind some major societal changes for women's right such as:
-the reproductive rights for women.
-right to own a property and enter into a valid contract.
-Gender neutrality in English etc.
feminist focuses on women's rights, the nature of gender inequality came to limelight by its examination of women's social roles and lives experiences in the society.

Feminist over the years have staged movements and continue to campaign for women's rights till this day.
Such right as:
-right to occupy public offices.

Great post! I think you did a great job summarizing the movement. I'd like to add that feminism--especially nowadays--also lifts up the idea of femininity--in both men and women--to the same level of respect as masculinity, and works to break down toxic stereotypes in both men and women. I wish more men knew about this, as maybe then they'd realize we aren't trying to bash men, but rather help them break free from social constructs as well. So many red pill/men's rights arguments, such as discrimination towards paternal custody and domestic violence against men by women are products of toxic masculinity as imposed by society, and would be solved under feminism as well!

I'm looking forward to reading the rest of your feminism series! Keep it up!

I appreciate your comment. Thanks for reading. Hoping to see more of it in subsequent post on this.

I disagree with how feminism has been used by some people to gain money. I believe in equality and human rights but I don't want to be associated with "feminism" because of the stigma

For example, in canada we had over $20 000 given to a feminist group to do a report on global warming from a feminist viewpoint.
I think the money would be better off sent to a scientist who's career is in climate change and can give an (hopefully) more informed and less biased report.

There's no stigma attached to doing the right thing. It's all about protecting the rights of people. Women has the right to be fully involved in the society.I guess your government believes in that too, that was why it decides to give them the opportunity to carry out the report.
Thanks for sharing your opinion.

I hate to burst your bubble, but feminism is a soft eugenics operation designed to brainwash women in order further inhuman agendas. It originated in the early 20th century by wealthy white industrialists under the guise of promoting women's voting rights... in order to keep blacks from voting. And it goes down hill from there. It is a tough pill to swallow believe me... I identified as feminist for most of my life and even graduated from a top women's college in the US! Its too much to explain now but I hope you will look into this further. Feminism was designed to promote abortion, break down the family, confuse women about their sexuality and role in society and paint all men as predators. It simply isn't right. However, I like your style and will follow. I hope you will follow me as I will be blogging more about this topic in the future. Best wishes ~ Ms. Dear

I cannot agree more, and as an American woman, it breaks my heart that this ridiculous western idea is spreading to other parts of the globe... It is meant to do nothing but break down the family, put the women to work so the state can raise your kids, demean men and their role in society, and it goes on and on.

I hope @favoursampson follows me as well, as I will be blogging about this extensively this year also. I do agree that women should, of course, have equal involvement in society, but the feminist movement is not the way to achieve that - take advice from those us of who have experienced it firsthand.

Here in America women are looked down upon by other "feminist" for choosing to stay home and raise their own kids instead of working - how is that productive to society if there is no one to raise future generations except for state-regulated daycare systems who clearly do not have the well-being of children in mind?

Thanks @msdear, I really appreciate your contribution but the feminism of today is better than its history, it's rather promoting something more than abortions right etc. It's all about spurring the women folk to work harder and secure a place in the society. It's not meant to see men as its competition nor enemies.

Different people havd their different perspectives. feminism means women taking their power. It now has many factions but individuality is at its forefront. You may not dupport feminism, but feminism does support you whether you want to stay at home or be single and travel the world.

Powerful words @limabeing. Exactly my point. Feminism supports everyone, so I'm not against women who choose to stay at home and care for the children, taking care of the children is a great means of productivity. @millinnia pls go through my next blog on feminism "Feminism is not women rising above men" and you will understand my point better.

In the US they have taken feminism to an extreme and just like anything that's an extreme is dangerous. I am for equal rights and equal opportunity but not equal pay or special treatment of minority groups. Nothing can last long when certain groups have special rights. Merit based systems are the future, which is one reason why I think blockchain is taking off so fast now. It rewards to people who actually do the work or take the risk.

Yeah the idea of equality in marriage is not right... U should know that. The western world might support it but its still not right before God

Really? @raymondavid1 So are you suggesting that God meant women to be slaves in marriage? The word "wives submit" is broader than u know and same goes for the word " husbands love your wife" balance both and you will realize that marriage is not inequality nor slavery.

Lol god? ... It's not an issue of fairy tales it's about how people treat people

You're on track. Thanks for stopping by.

a wise man spotted

My hats are off for you😝

seriously??

Not right before God?

I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinions here
