I will start with this disclosure: I am Canadian and more particularly, from the province of Quebec.
The reason I have started with this disclosure is because I completely stupefied by current shouting matches that can be found on the internet concerning feminism. In the region where I live, thought I do not want to speak for everybody, most would consider themselves feminists and see this as a good thing. The net version of Meriam-Webster defines feminism as: "the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities".
So why are some internet personalities such as Matt Dillahunty and Steve Shives called out for being feminists? How is the above definition a bad thing?From what I have seen, the issue seems contained to internet comment sections and youtube videos. Is there an aspect to this ongoing "debate" that I am completely missing?
