Feminism equality has been achieved these are just women looking for handouts

Feminism: The belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities http://www.merriam-webster.com... The pros round will flow as follows: - Women can work the same jobs as men. - Women can choose how to live their lives. - Women today are looking for handouts as feminism is already achieved. Women can work the same jobs as men http://usnews.nbcnews.com... http://www.navy.mil...(Question 10) Con claims that Women are allowed to do all the same jobs as men, pro will proceed to disprove this. In terms of the USA, one of the more progressive nations with feminism, women are still limited when it comes to the military. The pros two examples will be that of their inability to get assigned to full-time service aboard any type of military submarine and their inability to enter any of the special forces groups. The former due to claims of a lack of privacy and habitability without real explanations that empirically prove a woman is unable to serve aboard the vessels and the latter having the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff wanting them to get the go-ahead and yet women are still not allowed to join. Women can choose how to live their lives. http://www.washingtonpost.com... (For the purpose of this debate, my evidence is the synopsis of the video included rather than the video itself due to its pointless humor, feel free to watch it but I will base my test off of what is written around it.) The con failed to look at the poster child of female oppression, Saudi Arabia. 'each Saudi woman has a "male guardian," typically their father or brother or husband, who has the same sort of legal power over her that a parent has over a child. She needs his formal permission to travel, work, go to school or get medical treatment.'[sic] This statement elegantly summarizes the obvious, that feminism has not completed their goals. http://www.globalpost.com... This particular article talks about Saudi Arabia deciding to keep child marriage. The particular case in question was about wedding an 8 year old girl to a man in his late 40s. Women today are just looking for handouts This will effectively be the pro summary as the pro has more than fulfilled their burden of proof. As Feminism calls for equality and the pro has presented evidence proving that equality has not been achieved, the pro automatically wins so long as con fails to adequately counter this evidence. In addition, the pro reserves the right to clarify and provide definitions to defend their evidence and arguments.
