Hello, thank you for reading my essay. I am well aware that feminism can be a confusing, overwhelming, and touchy topic for society. There are a lot of misconceptions out there about feminism; and there are a lot of 'feminists' who promote sexism. What I want to do is talk about all of that.
I'm American, and my main focus is on America. However, most of what I will go over is still relevant to the rest of the Western world. I'm also going to be quoting and linking to other people's articles. I may not agree with every single word or idea in them, but I agree with the overall point, or the connection I specify.
We're going to start off slow, and ease into things. That means we're first going to take a look at language and the definitions of different terms.
