I’m a feminist, but I’m not. I might get jumped or something for saying this, but I don’t care. I am so sick and tired of women of all ages making such a big deal of not having rights, allegedly, when in reality women have just as many rights as men do. The fact of the matter is that men and women each have their own strengths. There are plenty of things that women are better at than men and vice versa; this should not be a cause for revolt.

Don’t get me wrong, I am all for girl power and everything that Beyonce makes us believe in, but it comes to a point sometimes when it is all too much. I’m a strong believer in free speech because that’s what this country was founded on, but free speech can occasionally be taken to an extreme. The protests that have occurred over the course of the past 2 weeks have made me really think about my stance on feminism and everything that feminists stand for. The basic point of feminism is for women to fight for their own rights, but when women have just as many rights as men do, what are we still fighting for? This is when we start picking apart everything and focusing on the opinions of other people whose comments we find offensive, such as President Trump. We should instead concentrate on our own views; protests against the President will not make him change any of his own convictions.

I think that women have some pretty damn equal rights right now and we should be proud of ourselves. I don’t believe in “Free the Nipple” but I don’t condemn people who do. I like it when guys open a door for me (#chivalry-wow nice to see that you still exist, am I right?) and I don’t think it’s offensive at all. Feminism is about providing equality for everyone, not just protesting and looking for things to bitch about that really aren’t too important. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions no matter what side and the truly great part of this country is that we are free to discuss our opinions.
