Feminism was not about trashing men,it was about telling women to rise up and men to style up...but this was ineffective... It needed a villain an "enemy combatant"...and this villain needed a face.
Guess what face they gave him?!! Exactly right ...The Man or Men..and just like any marvel super hero, the villain needed a name....So patriarchy became the name of the villain.Patriarchy became the Thanos. of Feminism.
So they launched attacks on "patriachy"... And over the years true feminism got lost in the raging war.Children born today,know that for you to be a true feminist you must be anti men..anti-patriachy.
Your true strength is shown by attacking the biggest man or men around you directly or indirectly.
The fight has gained strides,but what happened is feminity got lost,and masculinity got demonized.Now we got women,peeing while standing coz peeing while bending is patriarchal.We get women trying to be the same villain they fight so hard.Getting into fights,kneeling and proposing to men in baggy suits coz tight is patriarchal.
From the third inception of the feminist movement,in the 60s lead by the "crazy" Valerie solanos...femimism lost its course completely..feminism was a way to change the perception of the masses on views of women in leadership and thier Democratic rights...it was an emotional fight.
As chimamanda Igozi says in her book *We should all be feminists*..its two different things to know something emotionally and to know some intellectually.
