    Feminism

    it seems my opponent escaped his first opportunity to start his argument, So i'll do it instead. Many people mistake feminism with misandry, However it isn't equal. My side is pro-feminism, Not pro-misandry. The definition is clear: FEMINISM:"the advocacy of women's rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes. " MISANDRY:"dislike of, Contempt for, Or ingrained prejudice against men (i. E. The male sex). " both groups of people may protest, But overall feminism still play the sane part. They just ask for equality and rights. Equality not absolute oligarchy. The things feminism may protest would be like: "STOP Gender Pay Gap! " "Girls Can Do This! " these types of people protests in an assertive way. They just ask for the line being pushed back to the center, Not all the way to the other side. They protest on a basis of women being less rightful, And they most likely won't make up a random scenario that women is already superior at such fields. on the other side, What we most likely to see, And what would be in the spotlight, And what whom wanted the spotlight on themselves, Are the misandrists. They are less sane and more aggressive. Being mistaken for feminists, They actually push the fault onto the true feminists. such topics misandrists would argue are: "Men are stupid" "Girls should rule" all these leads to superiority and sexism, Not anything "sane". Notable feminists: (not necessarily, But they contribute to the women) Marie Curie(scientist):first woman to win a Nobel Prize, The first person and only woman to win twice, And the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences. " Hillary Clinton: Democratic Party's nominee for President of the United States in the 2016 election, The first woman nominated by a major party. Rosa Parks:"American activist in the civil rights movement best known for her pivotal role in the Montgomery bus boycott. The United States Congress has called her "the first lady of civil rights" and "the mother of the freedom movement". " Don't blame the fault of misandry to the feminism. These are 3( yes only 3) example of female empowerment and contribute against discrimination. What we see as misandrists discriminates, And are not equal to feminists. Feminists reduces discrimination.
