Feminism

A political movement that seeks for equality for men and women. Feminists do not claim that women are better than men in any way.
Both men and women can be feminists, as no gender is claimed to be superior.
Person 1: 'Feminism is so important! We should show the world that women are better than men. All men are rapists!'
Person 2: 'Actually, that's very a very sexist thing to say. Begone, thot, you ain't no feminist.'

Feminists believe that men and women have equal rights, e.g.:
-Both men and women should be able to wear make-up.
-Both men and women should be able to not wear make-up.
-The percentage of rapists is actually very small, but all cases of rape should be taken serious. Everyone is innocent until proven otherwise.
-Men and women should be payed equally. (in 1963, the Equal Pay Act was signed into law in the USA, but studies show that there is still a gender pay gap that varies between aproximately 9.1 percent and 70 percent.)

Feminism

Feministsare dangerously often confused with feminazis. A feminazi is a man-hating extremist who believes women to be better than men and are basically just reverse sexists. A feminist is someone who fights for equal rights between men and women, since women are still being opressed all over the world in many, many different ways. An example of this opression is the pay gap, which many wrongly believe to be a myth, despite it being very easy to find plenty of evidence with just a quick and simple google search. Feminism tries to fight this opression through protests and campaigns like #freethenipple or #freewomen.

Feminism

The belief that women and men should have the same rights and should be treated equally. This also fights so the gender roles are supresed for both genders. This doesn't want the supperiority of women it wants the same for both.
"I am a feminist because I don't like being scared of going out alone."
"I'm a feminist so men can cry without having questioned their sexuality, tht's what feminism is about."
"I am a feminist even if I am a man because I don't want my mum, my wife or my daughter to suffer discrimination only for being born a women."
