Reasons Feminism is Relevant.

(Review on The Lightning Thief right here. )

So, as the title said, here are my reasons that feminism is still relevant. I'm doing this because one of my 2 best friends, Jacey, told me we were already equal as women. Ha! I think not.

1) There is yet to be a female president.
2) If a boy wears a skirt or some other 'girl' item of clothing, he's shunned because only a girl is supposed to wear them. But if a girl wears guy clothes nobody says anything because it's okay to be a boy.
3) If a woman is raped and is wearing "revealing" clothes, she's blamed for it. No, it's never the victim's fault. It's the rapists fault. 
4) If a girl does the nasty with a lot of boys, she's called a slut. If a guy does that, he's congratulated.
5) When pro-lifers forbid their daughter from getting an abortion, they're actually putting more quality on the fetus's life than hers. Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.
6) Female politicians are constantly asked who is going to take care of their children at home.
7) Every adult Halloween costume designed for men is fun and covers up every body part. The ones designed for women are revealing and lacy, as if she's made for pleasing the men.
8) Women have a wage gap because they're expected to leave work and have children.
9) In the boys' section at any department store, the graphic t-shirts have things about adventure and video games printed on them. In the girls' everything is pink and have things like "drama queen" printed all over them.
10) It's still considered strange for a man to vacuum or take care of children.
11) Breasts are sexualized.
12) For a man to buy something, it's got to have "for men" printed on it.
13) Peta advertisements.
14) "A Man and his Truck" advertisements.

There are many more, but that's all I have time for. I hoped some of you conservatives learned something.
