I was raised with a hippie girls can do everything men can do better attitude. My mother was a bra burning angry youth hippie in her day. She taught me to never let a man do for you what you can do for yourself, to never let him pay for you, or open doors for you. For years I refused to let a man treat me like I was inferior or feminine because to me thats what being a feminist meant. But the other day I found my lazy bum at my grandmothers house. A sweet very ladylike grandmother, the exact contrast of what I saw myself as. Well there was a rather large TV that needed to be moved..I could have done it myself..but I found myself calling on the muscle strenth of the gardener...

And it got me thinking...in the 60's being a feminist was very clear..even in teh 50's..teh 70's/80's it changed but i remained pretty unchanged..girl power..girls rule boys drool..ect...

but today...it seems that our new definition of feminism is "well guys are allowed to fuck as much as they want so we should be allowed teh same without getting teh whore rep because thats equal rights"..
think Lil' Kim...

But at the same time...I've noticed that girls have started expecting guys to pay again..to hold open doors again ect...

and the first ones to give a girl the slut rep is other girls?

I'm just randomly confused about what being a feminist means anymore...

Anyone?
