  1. A friend has been sitting and arguing with me quite insanely when I wrote about privileges and bullying that creates such an unfair system where others’ rights are taken away. You’ve explained it so well. I don’t know why people are justifying some people on the top taking everything for them and the rest are denied of their rights.

    1. Because feminism is an ideology which touches the lives of people across a spectrum of needs. We are each limited by our own perspectives and informed by our experiences. We can try but it’s very hard to surpass our individual needs and think about something as lofty as justice, human rights etc.
