The feminist movement.

For many, feminism is only an internet thing in response to the horrible killings that occurred in Chile and Argentina, that lead to the creation of the hashtag #niunamenos. but not for me.
As a man, it's a whole new thing for me to reflect about feminism, but I've been reflecting for about two years I think, and honestly I admire women who have released, or are trying to release themselves from the hierarchy that's been stablished by sexism.

The fact that social roles are determined to only fulfill some actions, is for me an idea that belongs in the past, and maybe not even there. I really think there's a lot to be done in many aspects, specially in education for younger generations.

It's my understanding that this political movement not only looks for recognition of women as equals in all aspects of life, but also the abolition of sexist oppression against women and also men that's applied by social constructs as small as the family, and as big as the state of a country.

To conclude this post, I'll say that it is an obligation for us as men of tomorrow, to recognize our privileges and to fight along with women to end all oppression, not only the sexist one.

Now it's your turn!
Write a 220 word post about feminism. You'll be free to develop your own ideas about it.
But if you need a guide, maybe this can help:

What are your thoughts about feminism?
When did you learn about the movement?
How has feminism affected your view of the world?

I hope you enjoy this post, after all, you chose it.

  2. It's really pleasant when you read or listen a man that stand for woman rights too! I really wait for the day that all we can be united for this same cause :)

    1. I can't agree with you more, man and woman feel this opression in every aspect of their lives, hope this change soon, and everyone can feel free of being who they are.Feminism is freedom.
