What Feminism means to IPFW Feminists
Feminism to me is the pursuit of freedom from a
fucked up system. The patriarchy is constructed
around lies that keep cis men in charge, and
everyone else beneath them.
Feminism to me means the equality of all genders;
the recognition that there are more than two
genders.
Feminism to me is the wide spread acceptance,
knowledge, and love of the human body. Did you
know that the vagina expands when aroused? What
about that the number of intersex individuals in
the world is close to the amount of redheads in the
world. Vagina people can get facial hair, and chest
hair, and hair anywhere else a penis and intersex
individuals can get it.
Feminism to me means deconstructing and
unlearning the lies that I’ve learned about my
value as a woman. Lies about my body, lies about my
intelligence, lies about my behavior.
