1. The belief that women and men are, and have been, treated differently by our society, and that women have frequently and systematically been unable to participate fully in all social arenas and institutions.
2. A desire to change that situation.
3. That this gives a "new" point-of-view on society, when eliminating old assumptions about why things are the way they are, and looking at it from the perspective that women are not inferior and men are not "the norm."

Men and women are seen as equal in todays society. This is why I am not a feminist. Feminist go on about how they are not equal to men but in reality, they are. It is true that we live in a male dominated world but women have made great strides throughout the years and have become equal to men. I do think women are treated differently in society but only for little things such as men holding doors open for women. Feminist seem to think that they are treated unfairly in many facets of life but if thats true then men are also treated unfairly. There are laws that are made specifically to protect women but I don't recall any laws that are made to protect men. Women are given the same opportunities as men these days to succeed, maybe even more opportunities, but instead of complaining about what they don't have, feminist should just go out and get it instead of complaining. If I was a feminist then i would be admitting that women are inferior to men, but I think I made it obvious that women are not so that is why I am not a feminist.
