Why does feminism seem to be in permanent slow motion? It seems that feminisms victories take forever to achieve and when something is finally achieved it just seems that so much time and effort was put in by so few to achieve a couple of bread crumbs.
Is this because many women firmly believe that we have achieved equality and now there is nothing more to achieve? Is it because women have just thrown in the towel and decided that liberating women from male domination is just too much work and too much of a sacrifice.
If we have truly reached equality why do men still see women as their property and sex objects. Why do fathers still rape their daughters and murder their wives and girlfriends.
Why do male matters matter and women’s views are totally disregarded.
If standing up to male supremacy is too much of an effort and a sacrifice then how does one explain rape and other horrid forms of sexual, physical and psychological violence that men rain down on women every second of the day on this planet?
Is it because male domination has been around since the dawn of time that women don’t know any better and have just accepted male oppression as a fact of life.
Men have privilege and power and they enjoy every second of it without even considering the effects it has on women and girls. Life revolves around men, men determine what is right and wrong and everything is defined by male standards. Women are just property that the male can use and abuse as he sees fit.
Men have no interest in equality. If they did they could have ensured a proper society where all are treated justly. But men don’t want this; they don’t want to give up their privilege and power.
Women need to realize that if they just sit back and accept male abuse it will not go away. The oppression of women and girls will just get worse. More women will get raped, more wives and girlfriends will be abused and even murdered, and women will have to deal with more sexism and even racism.
Its time to get feminism fueled up and moving again. Men don’t want equality so if we sit around talking about equality we will achieve nothing.
Feminism must be about completely destroying male supremacy and privilege. Feminists need to “kick Patriarchy in the groin.”
Feminism is not about pleasing men. It’s about realizing who the enemy of women and girls are and dealing effectively with the enemy to ensure that no man will ever be able to inflict any harm be it sexual, physical or psychological on any woman or girl ever again.
