5 Things Everyone Needs To Know About Feminism

Here's a quick compilation of stuff I wish people knew.

• Feminism doesn’t support sexism against either gender. Feminism works towards equality, not female superiority.

• Feminism is for men too, we feminists are trying to break those stereotypes such as, “Pink is only for women.” “Men shouldn’t cry.” Feminism isn’t just a “girls thing”

• Being a feminist means that you fight for the equality of ALL people. It also means that we don’t exclude people based on their gender, race, ability, or sexual orientation

• The misconception of feminism is that all feminists hate men. However, feminists do not believe that they are better than men, instead, they are just fighting for the social, political, and economic equality of sexes

• Feminism is important because it allows equal opportunities for both sexes. Feminism allows both women and men to have the freedom to do what they want to do without being held back by gender roles and expectations.
