Not to be mistaken for "misandrist" (someone who hates men), a feminist is a person who wants to achieve the political, economic, personal, and social equality of the genders. For centuries women have lived without basic rights. It was feminists who got women the right to vote, the right to divorce, the right to have an abortion, everything that women are able to do today. Nonetheless, there are still disadvantages, such as the wage gap, abortion laws, sexual abuse/consent laws, etc. Misogyny still exists. Thus, feminism is still needed, not as an effort to "banish men" or whatever, but to simply get HUMAN RIGHTS and be treated as HUMAN. Some feminists believe in the intersectionality theory/intersectional feminism, which is a branch of feminism that is all inclusive and identifies other kinds of discrimination that overlap with sexism. Essentially, feminists fight for minorities - and that includes male minorities (POC, LGBT, etc.). Feminists empower women of all races, religions, sexualities, etc. by promoting body positivity, shutting down slut-shaming, shutting down misogynistic views, embracing sexuality, and so much more. Feminists also fight against toxic masculinity. Feminists literally just want everyone to be happy, have equal opportunities, and break down barriers and toxic norms.
