You Are 94% Feminist

Image

You are a total feminist. This doesn't mean you're a man hater (in fact, you may be a man).
You just think that men and women should be treated equally. It's a simple idea but somehow complicated for the world to put into action.

Are You a Feminist?

Comment:
Well DUH!

this test is so skewed. It basically says "Should women have the same opportunities of all other genders?"
what is so feminist about that? Feminism is "Should women be held SUPERIOR to all other genders" and to that I say "they already are."

100% Feminest.

The Wife always said I was in touch with my female side. Then again I was raised by a mother who was raised by her mother that never batted an eye at any of that stuff. I kind a like men though, but only a little, I was kind of fond of Dad. And I sure do like woman. Never cared that much for Mom. It's a mystery.

The test was scewed? How could that ever be? I passed and I don't pass tests easily. I didn't even need any help, no home work and didn't even want to put two answers to one question. I feel rather smug about it. I want a gold star.

The quiz was kind of stupid.

My opinion?
I'm a feminist. I think that women should be feminine...
The "feminazis" are shooting themselves in the foot by implying that it's wrong to be a woman, essentially.

Men and women in general are not equal when it comes to body or mind.
Their bodies and minds simply works in different ways.
They can be better suited for different jobs.

A good example: The army.
Military jobs are traditionally male.
But it turns out that the physiology and minds of women, like their wider field of view and better multitasking abilities, make them superior fighter pilots.
On the other hand, infantry requires people that are strong, enduring and not overly bright.
A perfect job for men, in other words.

So no matter how much some people would whine about it, fact is fact.

Should one or the other lose or gain any general right or be discriminated against, though?
No, of course not. That's ridiculous!
If a person does a job just as well as another person does the same job, then they should get the same pay.

In their bodies there is a difference, obviously, the sexual reproduction and sexual organs, etc. Apart from that I believe their bodies is capable of doing the same things as men, for what I have seen, I suppose it could get difficult sometimes depending on the size of their breasts. (Sorry, a man's point of view, so don't know exactly :P)

The mind works exactly the same way regardless gender or sex, that is, the brain's capability has nothing to do with it biologically, the thing is that women and men are influenced by society standards, so it is wrong to generalize and say that women can't do a man's job, when we can see there are a lot of women who actually do that, and if some can't, it is because of other factors, as it is because of society standards of what it is suppose to be "manly" and what is not.

Men and women should be held to the same sexual standards. If men can sleep around without judgment, women should be able to as well.


That question is stated poorly. Men and Women should have the same standard; mostly that means holding men to a higher standard... not brining women down.

You Are 61% Feminist

You are certainly a feminist - whether you know it or not.
You believe in gender equality, at least most of the time. You also believe there are a few exceptions.

It's more than just a question of physical appearance.

Saying that a mind works exactly the same way is an insult to a system as complex as a brain.
And if the brains capability has nothing to do with it's biology, how comes brain damaged people can't function normally, and why are drugs used at all?
No, the biology affects the mind.
If you change the biology, by a damage, for example, or by feeding the brain different chemicals, you alter a persons mind, personality and capability to perform, in different ways.

Men and women generally do work differently in the mind as well.
You have heard the stereotypes, men are logical, women are irrational, women have better multitasking, men don't understand nuances and body language.
And generally, they hold true, even though there are always exceptions.

So in a fair and equal job market, tasks that require a certain capability will have a higher percentage of people from a gender with which that capability is stronger.
Here, a high percentage of welders (a "manly" job) are women, so apparently it has something that calls for some quality that a lot of women poses.
Working against this in the name of feminism is not only foolish and counterproductive, but also indicates that there's supposedly something wrong with being a woman.

But it's not wrong to have different capabilities!
While they are affected, but not determined by gender/sex, what is wrong is to discriminate against gender, no matter what direction the discrimination is taking, because it's a question of the individual.

I agree that society have preconceived notions about "manly" jobs, and those got to go.

exactly! Feminazis are a construct of those who would suggest that women are shooting themselves in the foot because they are not conforming to what others would have them be.
