As a feminist, I am always interested in if there are any issues related to the rights/social status of men. One of the most striking ones is that domestic abuse against men is ignored, and even laughed at. a hidden camera was set up in London to see how strangers would react to seeing domestic abuse. Watch the video to see the results, I must admit I was a little disappointed by what happened (thumbs up to those people who helped the woman none-the-less!). See the video below and see for yourself!
To donate £5 to the charity supporting the male victims of domestic abuse, text the message: MKDV46 to 70070
Feminism plain and simply is the belief of equal rights between both men and women, however it focuses more on women due to the history of our patriarchal society, although some issues may still be present it is now time to raise awareness of the inequality of men too, whether this be in the support of domestic violence or their rights when it comes to children and abortions. Feminism means equality for EVERYONE, not just women. This video has a very important message and i cannot believe that some people are laughing about this, violence is never okay!

ReplyDeleteThat's what feminism is though.Equality for both genders. :/
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the exact same thing as making both genders equal.
