When something like that comes up, or when someone\u2019s being sexist or trying to do something that shouldn\u2019t be acceptable hell yeah I\u2019ll speak up and do what I believe in, and I think gender inequality subliminally exists, in some aspects more than others. Some people say \u201cI support women\u2019s right but I\u2019m not a feminist.\u201d I think they\u2019re missing that it\u2019s the same thing, the ultimate message is equality and if you support that, then congrats you\u2019re a feminist (label or not).<\/p>\n<p>Extremity is the wrong idea where it\u2019s like \u201cthat guy was eyeing at me and so that\u2019s sexism\u201d it\u2019s unfair and injustice, and that\u2019s where people get the idea of man hating.<\/p>\n<p>You can\u2019t always blame the guy, many times the girl is at fault too and that\u2019s the scary part, some lie and get away with it, both genders. That\u2019s the scary part. Especially when it\u2019s false rape claim, it casts a shadow on everyone who has legitimately been through something. It\u2019s despicable. Because not only are you making yourself look bad, you\u2019re making people too hesitant to speak up, people lie about that, claming shit all the time, if it\u2019s false then you should know the consequences of trying to absolutely ruin the life of someone innocent, just because there\u2019s no evidence present doesn\u2019t mean you should take advantage of that, if that keeps happening real victims possibly would be looked as liars too, you shouldn\u2019t have all that power in your hands and use it for the worse.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past 20 years, only 2-10% of rape accusations are proven to be fake, other studies have figures in the same range. The FBI has put the number of &#8220;unfounded&#8221; rapes &#8211; those determined to be false after investigation &#8211; at 8%. Imagine, horrifyingly going through something, it taints your soul and how you see yourself as a person, when you finally heal to the extent of being able to speak up about it, nobody believes you because many people before you have made false claims, that\u2019s sickening.<\/p>\n<p>The #MeToo movement is a good example of this, while it\u2019s original phenomenal purpose was to stop men of power from sexually assaulting the women below them, it can also be lied and twisted on such as making something up out of blackmail or hate, because it can destroy a mans life with one allegation. No proof needed.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why men or women, both need to equally respect and support each other, through good and bad, you should never forget your morals because of bad intentions, the truth always comes out, so never be afraid to speak up for what you believe in. The time is now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feminism : the advocacy of women&#8217;s rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes.
