Feminism
So it isn't a "high ground" thing. You are the pro therefor it is up to you to make a claim. You see how it goes by rounds? If I actually made an argument in the first round I would've already been in the lead and you'd have to play catch up the whole time. I didn't take the easy win. You're welcome. So I tend to agree with you're definition of feminism. I think if you frame feminism like that most people would call themselves feminists. It sounds to me like you should have asked to argue with a misandrists because most of your argument is geared towards clarifying a difference which is interesting and worth talking about but not what your title implies. What your title implies is that you are part of a modern feminist movement that would support things like equity over equality. Women have the same rights as men in the U. S so for you to be promoting classic feminism isn't anything people take issue with. It is the status quo. If you want to talk about the gender pay gap we can but it isn't a symptom of oppression. More women choose to go into fields that pay less. The difference between pay in each field is nominal. It's really a non-issue because we aren't going to force people into fields they don't want to do. We definitely aren't going to artificially inflate other fields for the sake of equity. So the real question is still: what is your claim? As a modern feminist what change are you actually promoting?
