Excerpt

Feminism is a collection of sociopolitical groups and philosophies that attempt to define and promote gender equality on all levels: governmental, financial, cultural, and social. Feminism asserts that cultures promote the male perspective and mistreat women within such communities. Efforts to reform include combating gender stereotypes and ensuring that women have equal academic, professional, and social possibilities and results as men. With the social freedom struggle in a better spot than ever, the women’s movement faces a significant setback: the protest’s treatment of some sorts of males who see themselves as a higher social rung than women. These males should understand by now that feminism’s goals benefit both the male and female genders, but instead have launched a full-fledged assault against its liberating principles.
