So today is International Women's Day. Of course, the radical feminists are going nuts over this. I myself am a feminist, though not like most feminists. But one person today said something along the lines of, "This day might have been nice for women 100 or 200 years ago when they were still fighting for their rights, but not today. Women today have the same rights as men, so this day is pointless." Made me roll my eyes. Because most women
do have the same rights as men. If you live in America, that is. Because there are still women out there that are believed to not have a lot of value. Women can't even drive in Saudi Arabia.
For another thing, why should the day be about feminism? I think it should simply be about honoring the awesome women in your life. Because let's face it. Men would be nothing without us. (I will admit that we, too, need men in our lives. But men need women more than we need men. Am I right?)
Getting back to the topic of feminism. I'm a feminist. But many feminists today are the ones like this:
And this:
I, for one, am a feminist that thinks the whole movement should be redefined. I don't know about you, but I really don't like being grouped together with those feminists that seem to have a pea for a brain.
