    Is third wave feminsim still feminism

    Feminism is defined as "equality of the sexes". It is not just about women; it covers men as well. Now technically you could use the term masculism, but as it should mean equality of the sexes they are two words with the same thing meaning, and feminism is already in use and common. So feminism does cover the whole spectrum of gender, and yes it covers things that have nothing to do with women. First wave, second wave, third wave are merely labels that are put on feminism to vilify it. It"s all just feminism. Feminism is about equality, and that means that central characters being 57% male and only 31% female is not equality in books. https://www.theguardian.com... In 2010 EEDAR released a study finding 90% of all genre of games having male lead role, while only 51% could have female lead role, which is not equality in games. http://www.escapistmagazine.com... Although the 23% wage gap has to do with choices that women make, and is therefore a dishonest comparison. When you compare the same job title with comparable backgrounds and experience women still get paid 5 to 8% less than men. Glassdoor = 5.4% still unexplained - https://www.glassdoor.com... Payscale = 7% still unexplained. - http://www.payscale.com... Washington Post = 8% still unexplained - https://www.washingtonpost.com... When you look into fortune 500 company CEOs the number even get worse. Only 25 companies in the fortune 500 (that's 5%) have female CEOs. http://fortune.com... Also women are almost twice as likely to be the victims severe physical violence by an inmate partner. As well as 1 in 5 women will be raped in their lifetime, where is only 1 in 71 men will be raped. http://ncadv.org... Which likely plays a part in why only 25 percent of women are consistently orgasmic during vaginal intercourse. (The psyhcological issue here have got to be pretty strong) https://www.psychologytoday.com... I could go on, but ya feminism is still needed, and valid. So please stop trying to discredit it, and pretending like women already have equality"
