Was feminism made for the benefit of white women

Also in the middle east the rich oils countries like Saudi Arabia have by far worse treatment of women where as in the poor region where Rojava is a thing women have the most rights.

Let me guess - you don't actually know that much about Africa, but just assumed that because it's relatively poor, women must therefore be more oppressed there, but you know South Africa is richer, and so assumed gender equality must be better there? Right?

Worth actually checking some stats. Gender equality rankings actually usually put Rwanda as one of the best in the world, comfortably above South Africa. Namibia usually ranks above SA as well.

A simple yes would have sufficed.

Oh guess what the reason those 50 countries are mentioned as a whole is because the ENTIRETY of Africa is poor and seriously need help. Obviously we dont mention it as Europe, the biggest problem in Europe is homelessness and this Myth about something called a WAGE GAP going around. In every country in Africa women are oppressed, maybe not so much South Africa but everywhere else for sure. I am a man by the way, I do not hate women I just dont agree with Modern Day Western World Feminism

I'd rather my child had cancer than modern day feminism

I don't see feminist caring about the wellbeing of women and girls in third world countries where they live in danger and poverty on a daily basis. Instead, we see white women the most prevlidged group of people in the west looking out for their own self interest I.e constantly demanding pay increases when actually if they were really good at what they do then no one will say no to a pay increase.

Then they moan about not being represented in lucrative STEM fields when no one is stopping girls from pursuing STEM subjects like Electrical engineering and chemical engineering. There are not that many girls working as bin women, miners, sewage worker why can't feminists demand that there are equal reprentation on those fields??? PS I'm a girl BTW!

I just find it funny how a lot of white feminists act like it's them plus all the other minorities vs white men. As if white women themselves don't have their own privileges above the other minorities 🙄

You prefer cancer over an opinion you dislike.

Wow.

Waa waa These razors are 10 p more expensive and are pink this is a big problem.
But who cares about women that are not allowed schooling or basic rights when there are more expensive pink razors.

No-one ever makes this complaint about other campaign groups. No-one thinks it hypocritical that UK-based anti-homlessness groups focus most of their attention on homelessness in the UK rather than homelessness in say, Bangladesh, despite the fact that it's a more severe problem in Bangladesh. No-one asks why the NSPCC aren't putting their resources into protecting children in Iran. It's only feminist activists that are constantly criticised for placing a greater focus on their own country's domestic issues as if that's somehow an odd thing for activists to do.

A political tool I dislike which is used to remove facts from valid points. Women in the western world aren't oppresed.

You prefer cancer over a political tool.

Wow.

ps The fact that you are still defending your grotesque statement speaks volumes about you.

I totally agree.

If "Feminism" was truly about equality, it would be called "Gender Egalitarianism" and would focus on issues for both males and females.

Why is there no discussion on male suicide rates being far higher than women? Why are there no schemes for making Primary School Teachers 50:50 male and female? Why are there no schemes making university 50:50 male and female?

Exactly, same i know these women who are all like no not enough women in STEM careers and they are geniuses seriously they are geniuses
ME - "What are you studying at A -Levels?"
THEM - "English Lit & Lang', History, Gov & Politics, Citizenship

ME - "What do you think about the no of women in STEM careers"
THEM - "Stupid men oppressing us and not letting us go into STEM careers"
ME - "Oh ok. I totally see what you mean"

Only thing that baffles me is why there is so much effort for women in STEM, but nothing for men in nursing? Do any feminists have an answer for this?

I have seen another post like this and hopefully you realise that those are UK based companies and groups. Obviously they wouldnt care about the healthcare in Ghana and the child abuse in Ghana, I am sure that if they had the funding and the money they would but they dont. However with feminism it is different because it isnt a company it is equal rights for all women which it should be about not just equal rights for white women.

I think I don't feel. How are women oppresed in the first world?

I was a femenist before and then I realised that I was supporting something which was for the benefit of white women only. Regardless of gender if you are good then you can demand to get paid higher.
Men do the most dangerous and dirties types of jobs. I don't see them complaining or. demanding like 99% of feminists.
