I’m a cis male and I believe in the importance of feminism, but I hesitate to call myself a feminist because it seems like there is a presumption of understanding women’s experiences as if I was part of the Me Too movement. In some binary sense given how hateful and shitty men can be I’m absolutely a feminist, but I wouldn’t declare myself to be one. What is your standpoint?
Like Scholarship programs and Mentorship programs and stuff like that?
Sure! Those are good steps. They aren’t complete, though, and that’s why work still has to be done beyond simply saying “men and women are equal legally, so there’s no more problems to be worked out.”
