Female equivalent of toxic masculinity. There being nothing in actual femininity that could be described as toxic the word was invented to mean aberrant thought processes and behaviour in women.
Germaine was complaining about the low representation of women in a profession that very few women seem interested in or apply for jobs in.She said it was because of the patriarchy. We all thought that was an appalling display of feminism.

Get the 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.

Get the Feminismmug. Feminism (noun)
The advocacy of women’s rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes.
Feminism at its core is about equality of men and women. Critics argue that equality is not possible because women are not the “same” as men. However, feminism advocates equal rights and equal access to opportunities. Men and women do not have to be the “same” to have the right to equality.

Get the Feminemug. What feminism used to be
A fight for equal rights between men and women. Such as the rights to vote and own land. It was a good cause.
What feminism is now
Still a good cause, most women have gotten basic human rights, but we still fight for the ones who don't. There are also many other things such as d/m/stic v/olence (o, m, i) and r/pe (a) that are still very large problems that need to be solved. Intersectionality is also something that needs to be studied more in depth. I am in no way saying that men do not have these problems too, I am just saying it is more common that women have these problems. You can be a feminist man.
