[quote]Published on Apr 1, 2015A video for feminists to help explain why people hate them. The second reason people hate feminism is because of feminism's inability to define the patriarchy but their willingness to blame all of society's ills on it.

All the sources are in the quote, taken from the video. I believe this completely destroys any argument a feminist might make in regards to the first world.

The dictionary def of feminism literally says equality for men and women. Haha, is there something I'm missing here? Just because something is ok now doesn't mean it will be forever. I just changed the oil on my bike, doesn't mean I never have to change it again.
