One day, my boyfriend and I were looking up funny videos on YouTube. He brought up one video in particular that made me cringe. It was a "roasting fest" over some social media feminists. He basically died from laughter and was confused why I wasn't laughing. The video made a good point, some of these girls had no idea what they were talking about. They blamed white males for all of the world's problems and said that all of the other people in the world weren't responsible for any of their own issues. He thought it was funny, I was horrified by some of these "feminists."

In one of her speeches to the United Nations, Emma Watson spoke on behalf of the feminists of the world. She said: "One major problem that we face is that feminism has become a synonym with man hating."

Being a feminist is defined as "someone who advocates women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men." Being a feminist is NOT trash talking men, blaming them for all of the problems with this world. It's about seeing all people as equals, regardless of gender.

Speaking as a feminist myself, What we need to keep in mind as we advocate for change. Sure, a lot of issues were caused by men over the years. However, women do just as much evil as men, and blaming men for everything will do nothing to promote gender equality. If anything, it'll widen the gap between us. If we don't get our facts straight and keep our blinders of ignorance on, we will achieve nothing in society. What has happened in the past, is that exactly, in the past. In order to move forward, we have to join forces with our male counterparts.
