- Feminism is changing. And it’s not going in the right direction. People don’t want to call themselves feminists anymore, and the whole idea... the movement... has changed! Feminism is straying from its path and taking a nasty route. It is turning away from its original form, and women are disregarding history. Why is there such a stigma around this word, “feminism?” How can we change for the better, and go back to the right path? Nina is a South African student at the American International School Of Cape Town. She is very interested in activism and believes that everyone should have equal rights and responsibilities. She wants to get her message out and into the world, and believes that doing TEDx will help her on this journey. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
As a female, I bet the reason for feminism getting extreme is that feminism is almost no longer about rights but rather vengeance.😢
I’m going to agree with you because nowadays it’s less about giving women equal rights and is now about trying to reverse who was being oppressed rather than trying to make the word a better place
I think, like most things, it's currently in a state of overcorrection. Instead of being about equality, it's about I want to feel in power and the other side to feel what it's like to be marginalized.
Precisely. What rights are women still fighting for that they don’t already have?
It was never about equality. It was about power. It's always been about power, and it will always be about power. And they do it under the guise of activism.
Vengeance for what though? What did men do to women that makes women want to seek vengeance?
Feminists' vision of equality: Women get the authority of men, the privileges of women,
and the accountability of children.
lol
Agreed
True
Yep
Have to steal this one
As a guy in the STEM field, we need more women unblocking our municipal sewers/ manholes and digging underground tunnels.. now that is Equality.
No that's not a equality. Equality is the woman's ability to get a job in working in the sewer woods or down manholes,not actually doing the work. Equality is about opportunity not outcome.
@@axer3515 Never have I ever heard a group of feminists complain that they're not getting jobs to work on the manholes..Not even one has come up when the job is all there. Why?...I guess none of them wants the "bad" jobs huh?
Equality of opportunity is different from equality of outcome. If women have the equal opportunity to enter the field of sanitation but choose not to do so, so be it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You wouldn't accept it if they gave you the opportunity huh?
The premise is that women and men are to be paid the same.
Ladies. We will genuinely defend equal rights for you. But if you think you get special treatment AND equal rights..that ain’t how it work.

@@lockandloadlikehell yo the special treatment as you call it as actually called equity? Helping the people at a disadvantage to get the same opportunities as those without. I'd say it like this: imagine a person in a wheel chair and one fully abled. The fully abled person can walk up the stairs to the entry point. But the person in the wheelchair cannot. So you build a ramp. Is that special treatment? You are still heading to the same entrance? The diversity hiring is bs if qualifications r overlooked but generally feminism is fighting for opportunity for all. Does that makes sense?

@@A-05 You can achieve that only be rejecting your privileges' as woman. If you want equality then I want you to be treated like me, in the court during divorce process or during any event. If you harass me I am getting an opportunity to fight back, if you slap me then I do the same with you. Now you have female privileges + human rights while I have only human rights.
@@solidsnake4985 then men should start working in hosecleaning too, education in kindergarten and primary school. Your logic is so flawed. Equality of outcome isn't the same as equality of opportunity. If men don't want to work in housecleaning and education, neither should women have to work on construction sites.
When she asks, "Do you believe in equality?", she needs to explain what that means.
To women, it means equal pay, equal rights, equal everything. But when you hear a noise outside the house at night or going to the movies, the man better plays his traditional role.
The Panzerkampfwagen Ill, commonly
known as the Panzer Ill, was a medium tank
developed in the 1930s by Germany, and
was used extensively in World War I1. The
official German ordnance designation was
Sd.Kfz. 141. It was intended to fight other
armoured fighting vehicles and serve
alongside and support the similar Panzer IV,
which was originally designed for infantry
support. However, as the Germans faced
the formidable T-34, more powerful anti.
tank guns were needed, and since the
Panzer IV had more development potential
with a larger turret ring, it was redesigned to
mount the long-barrelled 7.5 cm KwK 40
gun. The Panzer Ill effectively swapped
roles with the Panzer IV, as from 1942 the
last version of the Panzer Ill mounted the 7.5
cm KwK 37 L/24 that was better suited for
infantry support. Production of the Panzer Ill
ceased in 1943. Nevertheless, the Panzer
Ill's capable chassis provided hulls for the
Sturmgeschütz Ill assault gun until the end
of the war.

Equality can never be equal. True equality is impossible without some form of dictatorship. Men and women are different and there is no way around that. Inequalities such as hard labour, majority of bricklayers, construction workers and sewer cleaners are men. Should we hire women?
Not all women make good mothers and wives. Not all women make good corporate executives. Everyone is different. Some women aren't as intelligent as other women. It's not about inequality it's just a fact
I’ve had personal experiences that showed me what feminism really is, and not just rejection. These days it has gone too far and it impacts people in a negative way.
A lot of people could confuse that with hate, I don’t hate women at all but I don’t believe they should be privileged for their gender either.
@@isssssssssssssssssssssssaaaaaa lmao feminism isn't fighting for gender equality. It is fighting for superiority
Yeah, including real feminists who are good people 😔
@@isssssssssssssssssssssssaaaaaa you remember when feminists started killAllMen movement? That's modern feminism in a nutshell for ya.
Now days it's a tool being wielded by people who want to see the population halved at least. What has 3rd wave feminism produced other than destroying the marriage/birth rate and dividing the 2 components needed to create life.
I sincerely try to understand feminism, but it always seems so aggressively misandrist. Why are all men so generalised in such a clumsy way? There is an emergent anti male culture amongst younger generations that will ultimately render women very lonely in later life. I need my wife. She needs me. For that reason we have gone through the ups and downs of life for 20 years. My children have had a wonderful home life and I totally respect that. What is wrong with that?!
Many feminists are aware of this and are trying to change. The problem is 90% of criticism of feminism is done in bad faith and misandrist women flock to the platform and use feminism as a veil for their sexism.
Actually, the problem is not with the general populace's need to "educate themselves" on "true" feminism, but rather the refusal (fear?) of those "true" feminists to call out the bad apples in their basket. Those are the ones we see and hear on radio, tv, social media, teaching at universities, keynote speakers at rallies, submitting anti-male "research" on our toxic masculinity, etc.....are we not to believe what we see and read with our eyes and hear with our ears? Why should we Average Joes and Janes do all the heavy lifting? Get to work and clean up your own mess.
Alas, the problem is not with us, but rather with you "true" feminists being complacent bystanders to the man-hate.
That's because feminism is cancer and nobody likes cancer
True
6.5 men out of 1,000 are willing to get married. What does that tell you? Baby formula companies are shutting down, jewelers are closing up shop, diaper manufacturers are drowning.
Marriage is a bad deal, and young men know this. Even teens know this.
As women, vote to change the laws or get ready to start marrying cats.
Equality of opportunity is good; equality of outcome is impossible and unrealistic!
Actually, equality *itself* (these days, at least) is impossible.
... and equity of outcome is nothing more than a lazy bum parasitizing on the hard working and brave person.
Otherwise called communism.

i am not really a fem, but i always thought my mama was a symbol for the empowered woman. she was a doctor til her last days and even taking chemo and radiation by the weekend, she would still get up and go to work the following monday. she was an athlete in her youth and she had a will that was strong that i looked up to her in times of struggle cause she made it out of the struggle despite the cancer and all that. she is gone now and during her days when alive, i never once heard her argue her worth or that she has it hard or that she is entitled to certain treatments. she was humble and at the same time a competent physician and a sweet and caring mother til she died. that was my idea of being empowered - strength, humility and competence.
Unfortunately, women nowadays don't display what my mama was able to show. It is all about getting attention to feed the ego and all about me me me instead the betterment of society as a whole. Times are changing and I am afraid that the values instilled by their generation will either die with their generation or ours due to the difference of beliefs nowadays. Goodluck to us all.

Equal - men and women are not equal. Even men amongst other men are not equal. There is no such thing as equal in nature. If you could reach an equilibrium, everything would cease to exist

@@abdullahbinjahed6900 I was talking about making men and women equal. Not all of nature, but I realize that his comment mentioned that.
No one is equal. But everyone deserves equal treatment. Equal rights and equal opportunities. The problem is that some women want equal rights along with special treatment. Not all, but some even go as far as to say "I hate all men". Modern day feminism is starting to look a lot more like Male hate these days.
Feminism and equality are entirely separate mindsets. If feminists were truly concerned about a universally balanced agenda, they would not be a special interest group.
They would be humanists.

This speech is very inspiring. Feminism means empowering and fighting for womans rights, it doesnt mean bring down men. These days so many people give this word the wrong meaning and I've seen many people trying to put them selves above men. If a man slaps a woman its abuse, if a woman slaps a man its girl power. Woman have it hard, its very hard for us as woman but dont forget than men have it just as hard as us. We're supposed to fight for equality not superiority
@Oldie But Goodie what do you mean?
Be an egalitarian then lol.
women dont have it hard. Men does.
Egalitarian is the way to go if we want to have equality for both men and women, and help both of them.
Currently men have it worse.
Even basic human rights are under attack, and nobody can even openly discuss the discrepancy between VAW and how the vast majority of victims of violence and of unnatural death are men.. but men have zero recourse.

This is a hot take, but we need to stop striving for equality. What we should be striving for is fairness.
That may sound like the same thing, but at least the way I see it, there is a difference.
Equality is everyone is equal. That is, everyone has exactly the same thing, regardless of effort, natural talent, physical differences, etc. Everyone should have the same amount of resources, they should be expected to have the same interests, everything should be equal. There should always be an even number of men and women in every field, there should be an even distribution of races amongst all professions, etc.
The problem is that people aren't equal. We have inherit biological differences, as well as psychological and cultural ones. Equality would mean that everyone goes out to play a game of football, and even if one team is composed o NFL pros and the other is made up of out of shape folks who have never played football, then the game should still end in a draw. It would mean that people would have to like everything equally, so nothing could truly ever be popular.
Fairness means that everyone is treated fairly. This means that they should have the same opportunity to succeed in whatever they want to pursue . . . but that they will also be judged fairly on the actions they take during those pursuits. If someone has more talent, works harder, puts in the hours and succeeds on merit, then they should get ahead of the guy who puts in just enough work to get by. That first person should also be rewarded more because they are more valuable to the company. No, they aren't being treated equally, but they are being treated fairly.
Fairness also means that anyone can try out for any field, but that field selection and success is due to things like personal preferences, individual skill, etc. We shouldn't be saying "We need more women in STEM", we should be saying, "Every woman that wants to enter the STEM field should be allowed to do so, but will be judged solely by their own merit during their time there".
Now, it's true that some people don't have that same opportunities as others because of poor decisions made by their parents, or sometimes even just bad circumstances through no fault of their own. And I do think that work should be done to ensure that there is a minimum level of comfort and opportunity that everyone should enjoy. But that doesn't mean taking away from folks who put in the hard work and were able to give their own kids better opportunities.
Equality is ultimately about outcome. It wants everyone to be at the same end point. It's a rigid set of categories that you need everything to have just the right amount of, or else it isn't truly equal.
Fairness is about opportunity and impartiality. It's about having standards and rules, but judging everyone by those standards and rules the same way. It's about rewarding individual efforts but also taking into account disadvantages someone might have.
Strive for fairness.
The word you’re looking for is equity which means people get what they need instead of everyone getting the same thing (equality)

True, we can have equity not equality.
Men and Women are biologically different and that's the truth but today everyone wants to be one which is impossible.
Dude I think you equality in a more literal term than it is meant to be. Equality would be that genius, athlete, woman not having more power/authority over you and being held under the same scrutiny as a normal person. You just took it to physical prowess/difference and intelligence disparity, where equity as a concept comes in and says that is for the opportunities and resource allocation. These terms are idealistic but that is the whole point, to strive to achieve them and not just give up and accept the status quo. These terms terms should work hand in hand imo.

Feminism is simply an ideology went too far. Exactly the same as racism.
Let’s not compare that to racism. Two different things. Racism is still alive. It’s went down but it’s still there and it’s still a problem. Feminism has died out because there’s nothing to actually fight for compared to 100 years ago. There is still racism.

@@HhHhh-ws8wf yes no point feminism
I mean the literal definition of feminism specifically says that it is a doctrine supporting WOMENS rights specifically at no point does it say anything about men’s issues. Why can’t we be egalitarian and end any and all form of discrimination seriously give me a valid reason.
@I. S both genders are hurt by gender roles but one gender is hurt more, so they keep their focus on that? It’s not that complicated, when one group is being hurt more by something we should give a corresponding level of attention delegated to that group, right?
I’d be genuinely happy to go more in depth on why I think a narrative focusing on the female experience is really valuable, but if you just don’t think women are more oppressed then idk what to tell you and I doubt any number of credible studies, statistics, or research I throw at you would change your mind.
It also says, "on the basis of equality of the sexes" there's nothing wrong with true feminism, and it's especially needed in places where clear inequality takes place, such as women not being able to show skin, not having rights ect.

Genuinely embarrassing.
Coming from a weekend where I was asked to explain something and ended up having a woman shout her input, while I was mid-sentence. I remained quiet for her to have he say, despite me being stopped midway and I consider it extremely rude because one person's story isn't more important than another's. I was asked to pick up where I left off and the sudden, abrupt interruptions happened more than 20 times and even when I kept on speaking, this woman just went louder and louder, to a point where my voice was completely drowned out, so I would have no choice but to stop communicating.
There was one other person who wanted to hear me finish what I was asked and when I tried to pick up the story again, wouldn't you believe I was shut down again, and the volume kept going up and up to a point of screaming.
So one of the guests asked, "why do you keep doing that? You voice your opinion over his explanation, so it seems like you're the only one who wants to be heard. It's rude and insulting."
This woman turns her hand towards me and says to the guest, "Okay whatever, listen to whatever!" and waves her hand at me, as if she was trying to get rid of a fly in her face.
So I voice my opinion, instead of choosing to say nothing again and I directly tell her, "It's not okay to treat me like I'm less meaningful. I feel insulted over and over and despite me feeling my conversation is probably of no value to you, I submissively kept quiet while you were shouting at me and then continued only when someone asked me to speak and here I am saying nothing and you're waving me off, like I'm an worthless mosquito. I also deserve the same amount of respect I've been showing you, while you were cutting me off and speaking over me."
She responded by saying, "Well why are you raising your voice then?"

You know what my own partner says to me? "You should walk away and say nothing." But left me to do so alone! She stayed behind and continued to socialize.
The following day I asked, "if a man had treated you the way she treated me the whole night, would you say it was intimidating, demeaning, rude, overpowering?"
She said yes. And I would have probably smacked him. So I asked her so what option does a man have, other than voicing himself.
She said, "Men should just learn to walk away because we can't make you feel threatened."
If your a man with land, money, career, house - do not get married by signing the state contract. If you make this mistake, 60 percent chance the family judge transfers all of your assests to her in one day. Yes, it happens when the judges signs the decree, if you don't sign, the judge signs your name. You lose everything.
It's foolish and irrational to sign a contract with someone who will be rewarded for breaking that same contract. It's even more foolish and irrational when you know it will be YOU who will be forced (by coercion and threats of violence and imprisonment) to pay that reward.

@RUBY BROWN welcome to America
In the USA, they want to start drafting women too in the name of equality.
I see a great decline in the popularity of feminism amongst women in the near future.
True but I think the drafting itself could not be equality because there are many physical differences between the sexes. (Pms, period, etc) unless they have different roles/expectation of training for different genders. just a thought
lol they can just get pregnant. The most sensible is forcing abo*tions (yup they support that so they cannot do double standards on this). and go to front lines. simple as that. you want the right to vote? Get the responsibility (forced or death by treason) to go to front line.
@I. S actually it was men's rights groups that ot women drafted.
Look at Israel. Women are drafted. Put them into different roles though. Some combat units will only be slowed down by women. Women are ok for support roles. I know some women who were in the army. it takes a special kind.
Lowering phisical standards to allow more women in is a bad idea. It is the direction the USA is taking.
Mentally:
If you test women for fight/flight/freeze response for example. The average score for women is much higher.
You want to be cool and collected keep your mind clear under stressful or dangerous conditions. More men than women are able to handle that.

I think not all of them are competence
From what I understand a lot of the wage gap actually comes from work time off. Women tend to take more time off than men and when it comes to getting the statistics people don't take that into account and make judgements without taking all variables into consideration.
But that's a great question, businesses primary focus is usually to increase profits, not discriminate.

No matter how much you dress up feminism it will *always* be a turd in a dress. *I WILL **_NEVER_** ACCEPT FEMINISM!* That is absolute.
Equality, to me, means equal opportunity, not equal outcomes. Equal outcomes means inequality because those who strive to be and do better cannot. Not everyone can be a CEO, a doctor, a scientist, a police officer, a constructor worker, etc. We need skilled people that qualify for these jobs.
Feminism was never about equal outcomes and was always about equal opportunity, especially back when giving women an opportunity to vote. Many jobs that mainly men take on, women aren't given the same opportunity and can be just as qualified as men. That's not equal opportunity. If a male and female does the same job, they should get paid the same.
I think your problem is you are looking at new feminists that are absolutely taking steps backwards and ruining all the hard work real feminism was designed for.
It sounds like your just a sexist. Your saying it means equal opportunity ( which is true ) but then you basically say there are more doctors, lawyers, presidents etc. that are men because they have more skills then women to do those things. You are negatively putting all women into a group, a group in which men get better jobs simply because they are better.
Sir, you are just sexist.
Why are you so scared of women?? Feminism literally means equality, yet because it has the word “fem” in it you hate it and “will never accept it”. So sad.
Thank you.

what is there to empower about women... I don't see any disadvantages of being a woman. They can vote, they can work, they can be CEOs if they so desire, they can drive, they can control a man's bank account, or men's bank accounts, they can join the military if they so choose, they get special treatments everywhere, I never understood what feminism is fighting for... equal in what.

Funny how feminists are triggered by "Baby it's Cold Outside" but they're all 100% fine with rap lyrics.
I consider myself an egalitarian. Feminism by definition is equality in the womens' side. Most feminists today act like feminazis and I don't want to be a part of a movement like that. Normal feminists should say they are egalitarians instead of those people.
Actually, the problem is not with the general populace's need to "educate ourselves" on "true" feminism, which feminists insist we need to do, but rather the refusal (fear?) of those "true" feminists to call out the bad apples in their basket. Those are the ones we see and hear on radio, tv, social media, teaching at universities, keynote speakers at rallies, submitting anti-male "research" on our toxic masculinity, etc.....are we not to believe what we see and read with our eyes and hear with our ears? Why should we Average Joes and Janes do all the heavy lifting?
How many times can we keep referring to that silly "feminists only want equality" dictionary definition, when we see nothing but the contrary?

Feminism by def is women's rights on the basis of equality of the sexes. Main point being equality of sexes. There's nothing wrong with true feminism, because it doesn't prioritize women over men. It's especially needed in societies where women are heavily looked down upon (not the west)
Believe me, there are many men being paid less than other workers doing the same job. Some people are just better at negotiating.
But most men have the a privilege to acquire those negotiation skills and leadership qualities as opposed to a woman just because of different social expectations of a woman vs man. It may be to a less extent in the developed world but is still a problem in rural areas and third world countries. So those who have that privilege should consider lifting those who may benefit from it. Because not all of us are born equal! exactly why we need feminism for both women and men to create equity.

I think the way to change people's view on feminism is to stop arguing that it's the same as egalitarianism (even though it is to most feminists), and just use the latter term instead. But I don't think any one will do that, because some are bound and determined to have the connotation that women are superior in the word itself, even if the official positions of standard feminism do no such thing.
In other words, I suspect there's no putting the egg back in the shell here.
Normally feminism starts when a girl has a bad break up TBH
No. It starts after we're catcalled and objectified by men on a daily basis. It starts when we find out how they wanna control our bodies and what we wear. It starts after they refuse to take no for an answer and violate us anyway. It starts after we're violated and we're told it's our fault. It starts when we fear going out alone. It starts when data shows women and girls are kidnapped and trafficked at way higher rates than anyone else. It starts when data shows married women die significantly younger than married men and single women - because women are taught to settle, do everything and worship their horrible husbands. It starts when women are conditioned to be treated like sh*t and as a result get murdered by their boyfriends/husbands. It starts when people learn the truth and strive for change.

'Feminism', i.e. the original equal rights movement, has become a sad and sorry husk of what it started out as. A lot, not all, not even most, but a lot of modern 'feminists' are just misandrists and use the guise of feminism to get away with it. When people criticise 'feminism', they're really criticising the misandrist ideologies of some women that hide behind a word associated with equality, so you can't point out their obvious anti-male sentiments without being called a misogynist.
At least you're lucky not to have such people where you live.
Got my license to practice and landed my first job after grad school, starting pay was 25k higher than the highest female classmate's starting pay. When we compared results, I was told that the pay discrepancy was because I was a man. I explained that my employer's starting offer was equal to what the women in my class had accepted, and I had counter-offered during salary negotiations for 10k more than I ended up with. They were stunned and either didn't even realize that salary could be negotiated at all or were too afraid to ask for more money. Of course, I was told by most that it only worked because I was a man, but several of them since have jumped from their old jobs and did the same as I did and are now making as much as I was if not more.
Here's my advice to everyone: don't be afraid to lose a job you don't have by asking for what you think you're worth with a little on top. They can only say no, or counter. They won't eat you or come to your house and burn it down at night or slander you on social media if you highball a counteroffer (within reason). The job market is called a market for a reason.

All this talk about why everyone should support women as if they are the victims. What about fighting for the right of men? Men are vastly the victims of suicide, incarceration, on the job deaths, lower lifespan by an average of 5 years, losing custody of their child through divorce court and so on. Are people aware that there are consistently more women who have earned bachelor degree over men since 1983 (that's close to 40 years now) Right now there are 14% more women earning bachelor degrees over men, and if you go up to a masters degree that jumps to 20%. Yet we never hear about encouraging more men to go into high education. I'm sick of feminism looking pushing the notion that men are the oppressor and women are the oppressed. Men has to be the first oppressor class in history that have lower education, make the majority of the population prison, make up the vast majority of workers in the most dangerous professions, have a lower life expectancy, and have higher suicide rates over the class of people that we are so called oppressing. Men are suffering world wide and everyone has turned a blind eye to it. No wonder the suicide rate for men.
