Modern Feminism is Not Needed in America

I would start by saying, sources were to be made at the end of arguments, not at the end of points as stated in the rules. My sources have been linked in order of their use in my arguments if there is any confusion, which when relating to most debates, there should not be. Con has repeated putting sources after points, not arguments. There is not mutual blame, as I have not based my argument off con's position solely, rather off the prevailing views of feminism, and have included his points in the broader stance. I withheld points for the rebuttal rounds, con could have as well. Wage Gap: I included con's position when stating "Most arguments in the 90%-96% range still do not account for many factors that go into yearly earnings, such as the fact that women work on average 42 minutes less each day." I stated this in the first round, and Con proceed to use 2 sources which did not include hours worked. There are no new arguments needed as my previous point of gaps portraying a 92%-96% deficit disregard hours worked remains undisputed. Equal Opportunity: As stated previously I was not directly referring to a specific wage gap, but rather the wage gap as a whole. Though con did provide evidence that women in the same job title get paid less, it is not a complete dispute as equal opportunity does not always merit equal outcome. Further, just because they are paid less in the same job, they on average do not work as long, which went unaddressed. As con stated as well, there are no laws that are in direct conflict with the opportunity women have. Rape Culture: Take 2.1/1000 and it results in .0021, computers have a calculator function if there is not a calculator readily available. Further women are treated equally in law when regarding rape, and that when including prison rape, women and men are near equal annually. Lastly, as I stated earlier, I was making my first argument in response to prominent feminist beliefs, and the position that con holds is portrayed in the argument. Female Representation: As stated in my equal opportunity argument, less representation is not indicative of less opportunity, and as a result less female writers is not a reflection of inequality, rather it is reflective of choices. This also holds true for all professions, many in the same field such as book writers and TV shows. Lastly I included Steam as a source as it is the biggest PC platform.
