    💡Learnt A Lot

    Todos tenemos que leer esto, es lo que necesitaba.
    Es súper corto, te lo puedes leer en una sentada y de las pocas páginas que hay terminas marcando todo.
    “My own definition is a feminist, is a men or a women who says, yes, there’s a problem with gender as it is today, and we must fix it, we must do better. All of us, women and men, must do better”

Quotes

    Culture does not make people. People make culture. If it is true that the full humanity of women is not our culture, then we can and must make it our culture.

    Some men feel threatened by the idea of feminism. This comes, I think, from the insecurity triggered by how boys are brought up, how their sense of self-worth is diminished if they are not “naturally” in charge as men.

    Other men might respond by saying: Okay, this is interesting, but I don’t think like that. I don’t even think about gender.

    Maybe not.

    And that is part of the problem. That many men do not actively think about gender or notice gender.

    Some people ask: “Why the word feminist? Why not just say you are a believer in human rights, or something like that?” Because that would be dishonest. Feminism is, of course, part of human rights in general—but to choose to use the vague expression human rights is to deny the specific and particular problem of gender.
