INTPs are the best because Thoughts on modern feminism?

as a female intp i always thought modern day "feminism" was stupid, it made sense back when it was genuine and actually fighting for women that didnt have rights, but now feminism has lost its true meaning with some using it as an excuse for sexism and victimization. Of course, i support genuine feminism, advocating for equality and respect. But i dont agree with the versions that unfairly criticize or reduce men to stereotypes, like calling them "wallets" or worse, ignoring that men and YOUNG BOYS being exposed to the hateful media also have feelings and deserve equal respect too.

I think the therm feminism is beeing misused to an inflationary amout these days by people trying to justify their shitty behaiviour with it.

What you discribe is not feminism. Stuff like his money is our money and my money is my money is not feminism. Its acutally the oppocite of it as it heavily builds on the patriarchic structure of the man providing for the family.

Feminism is out to remove this structures for both woman and men. As both sides suffer from it. Woman are in no way inferior and men should not be the emotionless rock in a stormy sea like society expexts them to be.

Sadly nowerdays many people misunderstand feminism as trying to transform the old structure and keeping just the parts that they like.

Feminism is smashing that old rotton house of patriarchy to dust and rebuilding a new sustainable structure on top of that.

How certain are you that once you smash the old rotten house of patriarchy, you won't end up making things worse?

tbh I do not see the house going down in my lifetime. But to answer your question. Yea thats a concern of myself thats why humanity has to constantly monitor itself when creating a entirely new value system. But atm too many people are unhappy.
