I don't think I've been in a lecture or seminar where feminism or supposed oppression of females hasn't been brought up.
Quite annoying. Especially when it's a female lecturer lecturing us on how females can't get in jobs of power or high up jobs. Quite ironic too, I suppose.

Completely agree. That module on the physics of feminism was a real pain in the ass.

I don't believe you. Unless you are taking a course on feminism or something in which feminism would come up regularly.

At times I feel like I'm taking a course in feminism.

In my degree, Feminism and Drug Design was a particularly difficult module I found. Physicofeminism was much easier

Well, if you're doing Economics, History, Politics, English, Sociology, etc. then feminism has been a pretty important influence over the past century or so.... so like it or not, it's useful to study it.

Right then, we're back to the I don't believe you or you are massively exaggerating.

The lecturer (women) is a incredibly strong femenist and she literally brings it up EVERY single lecture. Even when she is not lecturing about femenist theory, she will bring it in somehow.

I don't believe it comes up in every single lecture in every single module, but in something like "sociology of sport" I can see how gender could be very important. I would expect some things, like class/socio-economic status to also be brought up, but a lot of feminists believe that class can be intrinsically tied to gender politics anyway. I do think modules like this should be taught by more than one lecture, so you get a variety of perspectives, though.
Instead of just getting your back up, maybe listen to what you're being told and learn about the issues?
