Feminism is more than a simple movement to end sexism. In addition, feminism encompasses a wide range of social equality issues. I agree that feminism means many things to many people. This is one particular reason why I feel many people are hesitant to outwardly be an advocate of feminism. The social stigmas and biases attached to the label of a feminist can be extremely negative. As a result, a majority of people may hold feminist views however may not accept being labeled as a feminist. In today’s society I think it’s important to remember that people will have differences in opinion because of cultures which people were raised in. Nonetheless it’s pertinent that our society recognizes and respects that a person is entitled to choose their social identities, whether it be revolutionary or reformist.
