In reply to the discussion: Are the Feminist / MRA Argument Threads a means to "Divide and Conquer" DU - POLL [View all]stevenleser
(32,886 posts)I think on those issues where 2nd wave and 3rd wave feminists agree, 95%-99% of DUers agree with the feminist viewpoint.
- Equal pay for equal work
- Pro-Choice, women deserve reproductive control over their bodies
- There needs to be a lot of improvement in sexual assault prosecution and, even more important, we need to take whatever steps to prevent these assaults from happening.
- Victim blaming on sexual assaults has to stop
- There is still a huge gap in opportunities for women in many fields. The Bechtel test is one of many that shows how the gap manifests itself in movies, for instance.
- Misogyny is still a widespread issue that must be addressed.
Yes there are disagreements beyond that. But the mean spirited-ness belies all of the agreement that I think exists.
