Feminism is a movement for equal rights

Get the Feminismmug. In a war, a group of people sees something another group has (be it money, power, or resources) that they have a (usually) financial interest in, and they decide they want it enough to take it. Once the other group has it, it's hardly ever shared equally with other groups, it's just a different group that has it now. Feminism is the same thing, the intention of a feminist is not equality for all human beings (it's never been that selfless), it's who gets what, it always was who gets what. The equality rhetoric has always been a distraction that sounded good to the most varied groups of people. There is no such thing as everybody wins, there is only who gets what. Negotiation is one person or group trying to talk another person or group into giving up or surrendering, it's never been in anyone's best interest but the ones trying to get other people to negotiate or compromise.

Get the Feminismmug. A word that scares a lot of people but basically just means the concept of equal rights between women and men.

Get the Feminismmug. The advocacy for Better rights for females but not for males. (Previous Definition) The Advocacy for equal rights for both sexes.
Most people do not like/discourage Modern Feminism due to the fact that it promotes unhealthy standards for both sexes.

Get the Feminismmug. Part of the fifth wave of feminism, interstellar feminism wants to give attention to gender inequality in outer space. It's 2057, earth has finally reached full gender equality but female martians still earn on average 70% of what male martians make. Znorbos and Plorbos, the majority genders from planet Dorbos, still don't recognize the minority gender Fhorbos' right to wear whatever they want. And the Grimeselons from planet X Æ A-12 (named after the young space explorer X Æ A-12 Musk, R.I.P.) sadly keep on spacecat-calling their female counterparts.
Earthling 1: "I heard they're still not hiring pregnant Flotroxinas in the Andromeda Galaxy!"
Earthling 2: "This is why we need interstellar feminism!"

Get the Interstellar feminismmug. How feminists define themselves: "literally just treat us like humans, literally equality, equal opportunities, that’s literally all we want"
Subtle change as millennials and Gen Z took over: "equity" is now the word, not equality. Meaning equal outcomes. Analogy of starting a race from different positions and different body types and why some people need a head start / boost to get to the finish line at the same time.
How modern feminism should be defined based on its actions: the accepted mainstream politically correct movement that strives towards female-dominant outcomes in all desirable arenas.
If women are inherently better at just about everything (which many believe to be the case), naturally they should dominate. If they don’t, it’s because they are being discriminated against. So if something is female-dominated, we don’t then try to balance by bringing in more men. No, we celebrate, and push for more. The job is never done.

There are more men majoring in STEM than women. THIS is why we need feminism. Women outnumber men in this university 2 to 1 so we've made good progress, but it is not enough. We still aren't even treated as humans. We have to work 10 times as hard for 1/10th the pay. It is NOT okay.
