On balance, Feminism is not needed in the US anymore.

Reguarding the resolution--My opponent should have been more specific with the resolution, instead of admitting to his fault, he is coming up with reasons to go around the truth, which is (he didn’t clarify). It is pretty obvious that I have won this debate. I won this debate for 2 main reasons. For one main reason, Pro agreed that there *is* a wage gap, but it’s because men chose riskier jobs. Well, there are women who work risky jobs too, so I’m not going to buy his case. It simply doesn’t make sense. My opponent did not do a very good job at organizing his rebuttals, so I will do my best to do it myself. Again, my opponent seems to be writing more “fluff” and this isn’t a cop out, the judges would agree with me. In regards to my Human Trafficking argument: “First of all, this statistic also applies to children. The resolution only applies to women. Con puts statistics about children that do not apply to this resolution. If this were policy debate, I would put a topicality violation.” I’m not entirely sure why this matters? A child is born a male, or a female, and there are many children that are *female* that get tossed into human trafficking. Just because you’re a child and a female, doesn’t mean you have an less of a right as a female does. “Human trafficking has nothing to with feminism. If I may remind a radical feminist of what feminism actually means.” Human trafficking violates ones rights. [1] Sex trafficking violates women’s right to life, liberty and security of person. The fundamental individual right to life, liberty and security of person is reflected in Article 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and Article 6 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). A person who is involved in human trafficking does not have a say in what they can, and can’t do. They are simply controlled by the people who own them. “If Con tries to prove that 80% of these children are females, than Con still proves nothing. Female is specifically an adult female, not a child. These are just a few arguments about bringing up children in this debate. These arguments should be deemed irrelevant. I feel like my opponent does not know what she is talking about, and confuses human trafficking with all sorts of topics.” I’m sorry, but this is utterly a useless statement. You’re Women if you have a vagina. A female child, has a vagina. It’s that simple. C2. “I don't get why you are failing at reading my case. I already stated "Men are far more likely to choose careers that are more dangerous, so they naturally pay more. In the top ten most dangerous jobs(from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics)".” You told me where the statistic came from, but you didn’t actually show viable evidence, thus I can’t believe this to be true. "Males are for more likely to work in higher paying jobs-According to the White House Report, 7% of female professionals were employed in high paying computer fields, while 38% of males have gotten professional jobs." Here is the evidence I stated in my case.” I am not entirely sure what this has to do with the debate. I didn’t argue this, nor is anyone complaining about Women not working in the white house. [3]MY CASE: Here in the U.S., men and women work a nearly equal number of hours, about 50 per week. But once again, women take much more of the household burden. They average 33 hours a week at jobs, and more than 17 hours working around the house." Pro states: “First of all, Con does not provided a citation on where this evidence comes from.” I actually did in the round it was stated in. It was source #3. (http://kfor.com...) This is pretty obvious who won this debate, Con. For the following reasons: *My opponent should have been more specific with the resolution, instead of admitting to his fault, he is coming up with reasons to go around the truth, which is (he didn’t clarify). It is pretty obvious that I have won this debate. Thus, he dropped my FGM argument, and Child Bride argument. For another reason, Pro agreed that there *is* a wage gap, but it’s because men chose riskier jobs. Well, there are women who work risky jobs too, so I’m not going to buy his case. It simply doesn’t make sense. Therfor, vote Con. Sources: [1] http://www.endvawnow.org...
