In my last blog, it seemed like there was a bit of confusion on what my article was concerning. So to put it simply, the goal I am purely striving to achieve is to help redefine feminism. In my humble opinion, I hope that feminism will stop being viewed as women vs. men, and instead initiate the idea of people vs. oppression. I also strongly sense that this cannot happen until the public willfully eliminates the man-hating stereotype and other gender-
based labels from their perceptions.
I find it particularly important to exemplify;
- the patriarchal position gives people with power the ability to define people in derogatory terms, and in return decide what is or isn’t offensive for the rest of us.
- opposition to all forms of misogynist behavior, sexist attitudes and negative stereotypes
- ending the perpetuation of gender expectations
- equal pay and opportunities for careers
- preventing domestic violence, sexual harassment, and sexual assault.
