Is it normal that a can't be bothered with the feminist movement
I'm a 22 y/o girl and have noticed that in the media there is SO much about gender rights these days.
I think that:
1) in this day and age, gender equality is only an issue in communities and religions where woman are treated with serious disrespect and classed as lower citizens than men. but that in places like the UK and America, its just not a serious enough issue to be concentrating on
2) everyone focusing on this "issue" is diverting our attention away from solving bigger problems in the world today
3) in the beginnings of time, women and men were both in a position to be the hunter or the gatherer. and men becames the hunters and women became the gatherers (wonder why that was...oh maybe because men are supposed to take the dominant role, just like many other animal species - you don't see lionesses campainging for gender rights!)
I'm not going to go into the ins and outs of my stance but I would consider myself against women who are still protesting for equal rights in places where its really just not much of a problem anymore when there is so much more going on in the world like deforestion, poverty, corruption, the list goes on
I really appreciate all the work equal rights campaigners did back in the day, to let me live how I do now. But i feel, in my country anyway (UK), their work is done. As a woman I don't feel objectified or any of that shit. Most of my friends are guys and I don't feel secondary to them in the slightest or degraded in anyway.
To me, feminism has become yet another first world problem
