Hi steemians! If you think feminism is only good for women you are totally wrong!
After talking with my GF about feminism I came up with alle these questions since she told me that it is about equality instead of women are better than man, and I would like to here the thoughts of my fellow steemians.
So I was thinking about equality and the first thing that came in mind was, "Why do women get so many more days of after childbirth than men? Oke, it is harder for the woman than for the man...but what is more nice than spending time with your new born baby so they get to know the voice of their dad as well!
And after having this go through my mind, the next thing thought about was that women (usually) work less when there is a child. And I can't find the reason why. In my opinion, a dad is just as important when rising a child as the mom.
An other question that popped up was the first date. Maybe the dutch stereo type will become more popular now, but in my opinion it is incredibly weird that men should pay for the (first) dates. I have only been going out with women who liked me too, so why is it a standard that men have to pay? Its a good feeling to share things together, and I cant understand why certain guys always pay - its more than chivalry, it puts the man in a position of power above the woman that she then learns to expect.
Now I am really curious about all of your thoughts. Please comment and have a discusion!
