Feminism

Sorry for the late argument, I had stuff to do over the weekend and forgot to pull out my laptop. To begin, Mi"cro"ag"gres"sion [G6;mīkr! 3;əG2;ɡreSHən] <--- (wow English is weird) NOUN a statement, Action, Or incident regarded as an instance of indirect, Subtle, Or unintentional discrimination against members of a marginalized group such as a racial or ethnic minority. "students posed with dry-erase boards documenting their experiences with microaggressions on campus" indirect, Subtle, Or unintentional discrimination against members of a marginalized group. "they are not subject to daily acts of microaggression" I learned the term and definition of microaggresion from South Park, So take that with a grain of salt, But the point still stands. Second, My opponent is changing their definition of feminism to fit their own arguments, Calling points of equality strived for by many "Not feminist" I never claimed my opponent was arguing against the people. I claimed that he is arguing against "all forms of the idea" of which even the smaller forms need to be taken into account. Yes, People prefer to make fun of the postmodern movement, But what about movements of the past? Equal pay, Equal opportunity, Equal rights. Those were in the name of feminism. An argument for equality of outcome is exactly what we need, No? Outcome being how people are treated and respected on the streets. Outcome on where we end up when we start to die. Similar to giving people glasses so that they can see as well as any other person. If female biology means that they need a little bit more help to have quality-of-life equal to men, Give them that help. " There is no reason for a false-victim to own up to her lips as she's a victim of the patriarchy. " There is every reason for a false victim to own up to lies. Accusations destroy lives almost as much as the assaults themselves. Being a minority does not excuse you from ruining someone's life because you feel like it. Switching the roles, If a man were to accuse a powerful woman of something she didn't do, And ruin her image in the process, He would receive so much hate he would basically need to go into witness progression to escape it, Especially if it was false. The argument presented was seeing the accusation from the POV of only the postmodern feminists. Maybe not all women want to be held equally accountable for their actions, But surely some don't like the fact that exposing themselves to a police officer might get them out of a ticket. Surely some feminists want equal responsibility for their gender. And if some want it, Then not all of feminism is wrong. " they're emulating a perceived ideal" That ideal is what is wrong. If a girl wants to be like that, Nobody is stopping them. But if the girl wants to be different or wants to stand out, The fear of being looked down upon by guys or friends scares them into conforming. One is normal, Two is a coincidence, More is a trend, But doesn't it get to a point where it seems unnatural? Does it not seem like some of the girls may not want to be the polite little princesses they are? Sure, It is a societal norm, But that doesn't mean that the "strong woman" portrait of feminism won't help them be themselves a little more. I argue a focused point and make it broad, But that is basically the standing ground of my argument. I argue to prove that not all feminism is bad, And if any parts of feminism are truly good, Then your argument against all forms will lose. Some say the good of a few outweighs the bad of the many. I say the good points of feminism can eventually be seen past the dyed hair, Self-centered screeching of the individuals that stole the spotlight and cast a negative shadow.
