I believe the goal should always be equality not the furthering of one gender over the other

 @9H7K44Tanswered…12mos12MO

It has been successful in advancing the interests of women, although with the degree of prejudice that still exists, more progress is needed.

 @9H7JQHSLabouranswered…12mos12MO

No, they set out to be equal yet we still don’t have equal pay between the two genders

 @9H8QRQXanswered…12mos12MO

I think it hasn’t completely reached equality yet although there are different views from different people.

 @9H7HJD3answered…12mos12MO

It has overreached and began to cause a further divide between the genders (obv equality is important).

 @9H7J6VFanswered…12mos12MO

i believe that feminism is good and has done many wonderful things however in modern times feminism has gone abit to far

 @9H6TCJBanswered…12mos12MO

No. The 1960s feminism and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race

I believe there is some sexism still around, but many people are trying to push for more extreme and random things that make feminism look bad. The simplicity would make it better.

while there have been advances in women's rights, there is still a way to go in intersectional feminism. Feminism today is not a threat to social harmony, and intersections with race, class, disability and LGBTQ+ rights still need to be improved.

Feminism is the belief that women should be treated equally to men. I don’t think feminism will ever reach its goals (not at least in my lifetime)

 @9PMLY8Qanswered…5mos5MO

It has not succeded, the gender pay gap is still in effect and women all around the world are still being discriminated against.

 @9PJC8XJanswered…5mos5MO

I think that everyone, regardless of gender is, in some way a horrible person with evil desires. Men have the strength to achieve these desires, and due to a daily hormonal cycle rather than a monthly one, they feel a need to express these desires more often, this leads to men being statistically more likely to commit sexual crimes. Men are also less likely to report sexual abuse against them, due to societal pressures to bottle their feelings up.

This is not to say however that women don't do it either, men just do it more and this has led to a stereotype that all men are rapists, which in my opinion is an extremely sexist view, but I understand that this response is made out of fear, as parents often tell their daughters to be more cautious around men, leading to them growing up scared of men.

I know 5 rape victims, 2 of them are men.

 @9PH9W45answered…5mos5MO

I think it has largely achieved its goals “locally” within the west and needs to wait for the results to filter through, the target should now be the millions of people facing extreme inequality outside of western societies

 @9PFL2YTanswered…5mos5MO

Absolutely hasn't succeeded, and there is a vital need for it to continue. Women are still disadvantaged in every day life, work, etc.

 @9PB2ZKDanswered…5mos5MO

Yes and no. In the west, we can often see that when it comes to crime, women get off easier than men do. We also see however that women can be *** shamed despite men doing the same or even worse and be called Studs for doing so.

I don't like that it's either or. Girls and Boys should equally be taught to protect themselves and to call for help. Girls and boys should equally receive education around consent and healthy relationships. It shouldn't just be assumed that everytime there is a rape it involves a man raping a woman. Rape has negative effects on any victim despite gender…  Read more

Has feminism over-reached? What does that mean?! Sounds like you're saying there's a certain level of feminism women should aim for, but it's unacceptable to go beyond that. Question clearly written by a man.

 @9PSCKDQanswered…5mos5MO

To be a feminist, is to believe women are to have fair rights to men.
Some take it too far and it is no longer feminism, but hating on men. While others still disrespect women.

 @9PSB358answered…5mos5MO

No. Women are currently being replaced as a sex by self-declared gender, this is harmful to advancing womens rights & opportunities.

 @9PHHZVT answered…5mos5MO

Feminism is the equality of both male and female. Equality is not possible in every sense as output should not be controlled. however, I do believe that equal opportunity as a board item across society is a reachable target.

In my view feminism today now targets equal output e.g. money rather than the opportunity to get equal output from the same level of input.

 @9H6K92Panswered…12mos12MO

Liberal Feminism has been on the rise since the enfranchisement of black men in the US. It constantly ignores marginalized groups and in the 21st century benefits from advocating for "the notion" of feminism whilst supporting the patriarchal system and exploiting minorities and the struggling working-class members.
Feminism overarches other philosophies such as Marxism and post-colonialism by seeking to dismantle capitalism. The Feminism displayed in media does not align with what Feminism truly campaigns for!!
