History of Feminism

But I do think that celebrating men and masculinity (like in for example, "be a man" "Don't throw like a girl&quot is still putting women and femininity down as inferior, directly and/or indirectly. The ideal in society is to be a man, and preferably manly. Women can never be these things, and will be ridiculed and fought if they act like they're equal to men (and by this I mean that they don't sugarcoat their opinions, and they don't coddle the men they meet, like what is expected of women).

I mean, it's like a football match. When one team wins, we celebrate them and the things they do and try to bask in the glory of it. The losing team is still considered losers, and we either try to erase them from our memory or they get mocked. Both of these things happen at the same time, one can't exist without the other.
