What Feminism means to me ( mini rant)

Disclaimer everyone has their own definition of feminism and women's rights and this is my opinion. =p

Feminism is fighting for the right of everyone woman to chose her own destiny, and not be oppressed by anyone.
If a woman wants to be the perfect housewife and have 10 kids, whatever that's her right.
If a woman wants to wear high-heels, smoke, drink, and be a badass-bitch that's her right.

About Muslim ladies
Feminism does not mean we want you to take off your hijabs and wear bikinis,
It means if you OR someone else wants wants to do so, they should not be met with controversy and problems.
I am getting sick of women saying that hijab is freedom and their choice. But you never see a women without a hijab
standing next to them EVER. It's a smokescreen illusion to assume this is what ALL Muslim women want, and it;s
tricking people. All these stupid statistics, with how many women who are so happy and content and eager to wear the
hijab. Yea that's all fine and dandy, but what about the women that want out? Why don't you talk to them? Why do you
ignore them? Are they not your sisters too? Feminism does not revolve about what you as a woman wants, it's what the woman next to you wants whether you agree with them or not. If what they want truly restricts their freedom, it's about leaving the door open for them to leave, not shoving them through it. It's not about the promoting the self-interest of what you think the ideal woman as to be. It's not about promoting a lifestyle.

The ideal woman is neither a housewife, or a career lady. It's a woman who is happy in her own skin
without having people breathing down her neck with expectations.
And it's about not making vaginas and the function of the vagina the center of attention.
But rather a woman's potential as a human being with intellect and capabilities.

Ok done -__-;
