The moment you decided to ignore the issue is the moment nothing else you wrote mattered. You must be one of those guys who comment hilarious crap like "girls have it so much easier", "if I were a girl I'd do porn and get paid to fuck", "feminism is not necessary anymore". People like you are close to the "being gay is only either choice or the result of sexual harassment" people.

"girls have it so much easier"

In the West? In many many ways, yes, they have it easy. But men do in other ways as well. It's not a competition.

In the third world? Women are kinda fucked and it's generally terrible for them. But weird how I don't see many feminists concerned with those women.

"if I were a girl I'd do porn and get paid to fuck"

Not a big fan of dicks, so... hard pass. Also not a big fan of porn. Well, not the weird shit that qualifies for porn these days.

"feminism is not necessary anymore"

In Westernized countries, not so much. I think first and second waves accomplished what they wanted. With few exceptions, women can do whatever the fuck they want now and are protected by law. But the third wave... the third wave is based on really shaky speculative notions, heavily influenced by Marxism, and is why we're in the mess we're in right now. Of course now in a twist of irony we see the radfems going hard against trannies, which I think is a net positive, but when the smoke clears they will still be radfems and will still be a problem.

"being gay is only either choice or the result of sexual harassment"

I think people are born gay and people who say they've been converted are full of shit.

What say you now?

That's what you think because you aren't a woman.

We still live in a world where, even ir supposedly civilized countries, 90-95% of positions of power are held by men. We still live in a world where women can lose their rights in an instant, as the troonery trend can immediately show you: all they need to do is to allow men in women's private spaces like sports and bathrooms, and women are done being equal. While women intruding in men's bathrooms or sports or whatever is of no consequence. We still live in a world where women are hated just for being women. We still live in a world where women haven't escaped the shackles of their biology.

And I am sure this is going to instinctively make you angry. You hate hearing that women are weak. You think they have more than enough, thEY have it easy now, and they should be taught their place. That's because you're part of the problem.

Are they really though? "Positions of power" is a bit of a slippery concept, but just for the sake of an easy figure, I took a look at congress. That's 28% women. Admittedly well short of the theoretical ideal of 50%, but also a lot higher than the 5%-10% you suggested. This is also the highest percent of women it's even been, indicating the trend will likely continue.

The trend ain't gonna continue anytime soon as we have just seen how easy it is to undo all progress that has been made towards gender equality.
