THE ‘F’ WORD: EMBRACING OUR DIFFERENCES

This semester I took a class called 'The F Word', and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made!
 
First off, 'The F word' is not the word you're thinking it is. At least not in this case. Lol. The 'F' actually stands for Feminism, a movement that has been associated with a lot of negative things in the past, hence the decision to call the class 'The F Word'. But as I have learnt over the past few weeks, those things don't define what feminists truly stand for.
Some people think that feminists hate men, and that feminist women think that they don't need men, but that's not true; true feminist women are actually less hostile towards men than other women are, and feminists actually have healthier and more stable romantic relationships 💑 - at least according to studies.
By definition, a feminist is a person who believes that women and men are equal, and that they should be treated equally, which means that men can be feminists, too.
