RE: What do you think of Feminism?

There are hundreds of feminist currents, so it does feel less focused than in the past. For instance, in the past, feminism was the cause of important institutional changes - such as women's suffrage and equal pay. Now it's more cultural: accurate representation of women in the media and minimization of the gender gap, for instance.

I identify with that, considering that I come from a country with a huge "macho" culture. It's slowly changing for the better, following the example of western countries. Still, I have a hard time understanding the war against pornography and prostitution: prohibition almost always leads to worse work conditions, instead of preventing it, and there are tons of evidence about it. I also don't agree with TERFs.
