The Difference: Feminism And Pseudo Feminism

Why feminism is important, what is feminism, and why we should support feminists? Feminism stands for equality for every gender. A woman deals with discrimination daily. Feminist theories aim to understand the nature and causes of gender inequality and to explain the politics of gender discrimination resulting from it and its impact on the principles of balance of power. Criticizing these social and political relations, much of feminist theory focuses on promoting women's rights and interests. This is important because have been discriminated against before, men get more opportunities than women in everything, In earlier times women were not allowed to study, while men had full rights, and even today, in some rural areas, girls are not allowed to study or are not allowed to go outside the house. Feminism wants the nature and causes of gender inequality, and to explain the politics of gender discrimination resulting from it and its impact on the principles of balance of power. Socialist feminists not only adopted Angles' analysis of the rise of female slavery but also attempted the cycle of women by applying Marxist assumptions. These feminists do not glorify the prevailing beliefs and tendencies of women, influenced by patriarchal ideology and heavily influenced by the patriarchal structure of everyday life.

Pseudo feminism means you pretend to be a feminist, Feminism, in simple terms means that there should not be any kind of injustice with any gender. They should get equal treatment. But lately, a new type of feminism is developing that is truly called pseudo-feminism. Pseudo-feminists have a deep desire to overcome all the injustice done to women, often to curse and degrade men. What they forget is the basic essence of the movement towards feminism: equality. The other form of pseudo-feminism is comfort feminism. We often do not realize this, but pseudo-feminism is all around us, secretly hiding behind feminism. Women everywhere are crying for their rights, but don't waste a minute asking the boy sitting on the women's reserved seat to leave. If true feminism is followed, then all victims should be treated equally. Victims will not remain men or women but only victims of abuse. But sadly, it is not so. Pseudo-feminism screams, that men cannot be tormented and that men who claim to be placed under such atrocities are deceitful. A true feminist stands for the equality of women and men.
