Hysterical Rage By David Frenchman Summary
David Frenchman constructed an article “Modern Feminism: Appalling Stupidity Backed by Hysterical Rage,” that tried to showcase why Feminism is becoming illogical if not already there. The specific points he cited were not very strong until reaching the third point. The first two were not persuasive because there was a level of current events or knowledge that had to be known in order to fully understand them. The third point used does show the immense stupidity that comes with feminism. A male astronaut remotely landed a spacecraft onto a comet, which was a first for human history. Instead of focusing on the difficulty of the accomplishment, the feminists decided to focus on the fact that his comic book t-shirt had a woman who was not

    Most marriages are formed when two people love each other and share the same aspirations in life. Once couples are married their views begin to change. They realize that marriage is hard and after having kids it’s even harder. Hope Edelman, in her essay “The Myth of Co-Parenting: How It Was Supposed to be. How It Was,” feels frustrated with her husband because of his lack of participation in their marriage. On the other hand, Eric Bartels in his essay “My Problem with Her Anger,” is frustrated with his wife because she is angry with him all the time. Though these essays address marriage from both a male and female perspective, they both discuss idealistic views of marriage, lack of communication, blame, and how to fix their problem.…

    However other feminists criticize liberal feminists firstly because, they fail; to challenge the actual underlying cause of women’s oppression, but instead focus on changing people’s attitudes and legislation, in which they hope will be enough to achieve full quality. Secondly Marxist and Radical feminists believe that none of this matters unless big revolutionary changes to the social structure are made.…

    Feminism In Penny Weiss

    Feminism has been born through decades of ignorance and misguidance, a perception of a weaker sex, and a belief that equality is not truly meant for all. Because of this deprivation of equality and privileges that exist exclusively for men, decades of work have been put forth from the feminist movement to ensure that no woman will any longer be held back or have opportunities revoked simply for having the status of a “weaker” gender. Before taking this class, I was hesitant to ever label myself in such a manner and questioned those who had, but after reading Penny Weiss’ revealing piece “I am not a feminist, but …” I no longer have that same reluctance.…

    “Feminist criticism derives from a critique of a history of oppression, in this case the history of women’s inequality” (Mays 2347). Women have always been second to men in mostly everything they are competing in. Even if the man and woman have the exact same job, the man is probably making more money just because he is a man. Women barely got the chance to vote less than fifty years ago! Women still have a long way to go to catch up where the men are, because men have always had a say in how to do things, and the woman would just agree about what he had said. Feminist are here to change all of that though. With protests showing women are equally compatible to do the same thing as men can do. “One of the first disciplines…

    According to the dictionary, feminism is the advocacy of women’s rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men. This means that what a feminist wants is not a matriarchal society where men are oppressed by domineering women, but equality for women. This doctrine has existed for many years, and it first became prominent during the late eighteenth century. However, if we are to explore how feminism affects society today, we must focus on its more recent history. Specifically, the “second wave” of feminism which arose during the 1950s and 1960s. This new feminist movement arose a few years after the publication of The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan. This book struck a nerve with the American housewife, and caused many to question if all a woman was capable of doing was merely cooking, cleaning, and pleasing her husband. In 1966 Friedan and others formed an activist group named the National Organization for Women, or NOW. This group demanded equal pay for equal work and enforcement of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibited discrimination in employment due to race and/or gender. As the feminist movement progressed, more and more women began to stand up for their rights, until in 1980, when women comprised the majority of undergraduates. But enough with history, how does feminism exist in our society today? First we must take a look at how feminism is perceived. According to…

    Truly there are still people in this world who don’t take the gender equality and feminists acts seriously. Girls in this day and age are still being told they are not allowed, or do not have the capability of doing something because “you’re a girl” as if that should explain to a ten year old girl why she can’t play tackle football with her brothers. This destroys the psychological thinking of a young girl and makes her think that she has these limitations because “she’s a girl”. Limitations such as these can cause long psychological damage and lower a girl’s self esteem.…

    Feminism: a topic of discussion in many homes and classrooms, which asserts the utmost attention amongst its listeners. A crazy ideal that believes women hold fundamental rights among men, and deserve the same treatment, the same opportunities. Feminism has grown since its conception in the early 20th century, and has catapulted upward in a grand and illustrious fashion, clinging to the souls of women who will no longer be oppressed by an abusive patriarchy. However, in this decade, feminism has become the topic of crude humor, has been made the punchline of jokes directed toward women. Feminism has become merely a way to generalize women as “crazy, hormonal monsters” who should never have a say in democracy because their “time of…

    In recent events, the word feminism has come up and a new debate has begun to circle around what it means, and how it should be applied to our society today. From statements made by celebrities, as a theme in a popular Beyonce song, and exposed emails from within the film industry, feminism is enjoying somewhat of a renaissance in the form of exposure to a new generation. While most people would agree that any discussion about feminism is good, there is also a circulation of misguided or false ideas of what feminism actually is. Additionally, there have been very public instances that prove that we still have some progress to make in the form of equality feminism aims to bring to various groups of people. Feminist Magazine defines feminism as the movement that “strives to end the discrimination, exploitation, and oppression of people due to their gender, sexual orientation, race, class, and other differences and supports people in being free to determine their own lives for themselves.”…

    Our subconscious assumptions can have real, adverse effects on the lives of women. I believe awareness, discussions and education can resolve most of these societal diseases. It takes several years for society’s mindset to evolve. Laws and regulations concerning women’s rights are crucial but not paramount in changing the mass’s preconceived ideas about women. Societal change, like societal misogyny, is perpetuated by the…
