(110,159 posts)the whole old woman/young woman is a ruse being used.
when we started hearing about the waves we were accused of being second. then we had to research the hell out of the shit. most of us were not old enough to be participants of the 2nd wave. most of us are of the age of the beginning of the 3rd wave.
now what?
it is a dead herring thrown out there to create battle.
my two nieces, 20 and 24 would be considered 2nd wave. many of the young feminist i read and quote would be considered 2nd wave. many of the women that started 3rd wave sees the fail of it and they are now 2nd wave.
do you see how that makes no sense but the obvious that an untrue battle was created for the feminist to participate in.
thru research i have found that these feminists are a SMALL group within the third wave and are called "lipstick" feminist. and this would be the feminist that is not about women as a whole, but individually, able to use their sexuality for their gain.
you know, a book, where it cheers a woman using all her sexuality to make gains in employment. that is what is being promoted. plastic surgery, ect....
that is not a feminist movement
whole different story than what was presented.
i love my high heel boots. this is the stupidest presentation of feminism using shoes. some women want their make up, others have issues. some want heels and all while wearing them, see the argument others make against. but, i am keeping my boots.
for others to work so hard putting women in a box, over this shit is the failure we allow. i wont do it.
