This is a response to a poster who said they were not a feminist. In the post it reads, "I feel that both males and females are pretty much viewed as equals now in America. Even though there are some advantages to be a male there are also a lot of advantages to be a female." Being a feminist has nothing to do with who has the most advantages, it is how the seperate genders are treated and the want for women and men to be treated equally. In 2000, the average pay for women was only 75% of what it was for men. Women take up 46% of the American workforce, but only 40% of managers are women, and less then 5% of top managers are women. More women then men have a high school degree and even more earn a college degree. How is this equal?
