According to you, how important is women empowerment? And why?


At this point it's just man hating and traditional women hating. It has nothing to do with empowerment anymore.
Suuuuuuper important! Because i dont want to be treated as less than a guy just because im a girl.
Look, women empowerment is important as long as that has her happy and keeps her kissing me and cuddling. 😂
I think it's very important! As long as it doesn't become more important than any other group.

I'm all for female empowerment, but women need to remember that line from Spiderman:
"With great power comes great responsibility."
You can't have it both ways: you can't acquire new power without also accepting the responsibilities and sacrifices that comes with that power. I think a majority of women understand and accept that, but there's a large minority of women who do in fact want it both ways, and while some people let them get away with it for a while, ultimately, it doesn't work, and she won't get away with it forever, or even for very long in most cases.
I believe that promoting true egalitarianism while recognizing and respecting differences is important.
The concept of “female empowerment” has unfortunately been hijacked by a group of extremists who distort it’s original meaning and purpose in order to push for gynocentrism.
Honestly it's not important to me at all. I honestly believe that it is actually very much over done now days. There is this such strong push by society right now to empower women and to help them better themselves. Like sure that is awesome but at what cost. We need to be building up boys and men now too. Because they are being left behind. I mean look at schooling for an example women are doing much better but boys are doing worse. Boys are having a harder time in school and less men are getting a form of secondary education. Then if you look at jobs and careers it is the same thing. There is this explosion of women in the work place, again which is awesome. But then you also have this growing case of men having trouble just getting a job, yet alone a well paying job that is a career.
I think all this building up women and talk about empowering women is great for women. But it's like by trying to build up women so much is causing us to ignore how men are slowly falling behind. And honestly I don't see the point of building up one gender if we in turn aren't going to do anything to build up and help the other succeed as well. It's not equality, it just a different form of being sexist.
Women’s empowerment involves men’s simultaneous empowerment. Feminism is holding women down, teaching women that they are victims instead of teaching women that they are capable of making their own choices.
Women’s empowerment benefits men as well. If you can’t think of a method for empowering women that doesn’t also affect men as a result, the. It’s not women’s empowerment it is only an attempt at making women more dominant than men.
No, I’m not saying that men should be empowered by right, as women become empowered. No. I am saying that the definition of women’s empowerment, at least at this point in time, involves the simultaneous empowerment of men as well. Otherwise it simply will not work. That’s what I’m saying.
I'm against it. We should encourage the empowerment of every individual, and not focus on groups. This limits us and actually does more worse than good. It's as if when you look at someone, all you see is the group they belong to, instead of their own free self.
The vast majority of people (at least in the West) want everyone to feel empowered. We understand the need for society and for the people themselves, that people feel like they can accomplish anything. Society is already equal, giving equal opportunity to everyone, but it's the own individual the one that keeps themself in chains.
It's as important as white power...


or black power

Womens empowerment is bad for everyone. I look at all people like this. Either im competing with you and looking at you like you're another me, or i recognize you as someone to be on my team and we can work together in an organized and efficient way to meet loftier goals. If a woman acts like a man, how empowered women do, i see them as nothing but another man to compete with. Im not gay, i dont marry or get romantic with men, i dont go out of my way to do things for men etc. And thus i won't do it for an empowered woman. When a woman acts like a woman i treat her completely differently. Most women want to go back and forth between the two but its not possible for me and seemingly most men. So empowered women give up something to be empowered and i dont think many of them realize what they are giving up until after they already gave it up.
Women empowerment as in? If it pertains to coming out and empowering women to bring forth information about a rape that has occurred or empowering women in countries where women are seen as second class citizens, subservient to their husbands and other male authority figures, yes, I’m for that.
As important as any kind of empowerment to any body of any type, we all need it but it's when it contributes to the (too often displayed) cult like mentality of "I have obvious rights but here me complain pretending I don't have rights" crap is when it becomes a problem
I think women could use more empowerment to enforce boundaries and increase some standards.
Doing this strategically will command better respect.
At least it has worked for me.
It depends on how that is executed. It takes respect to get respect to get respect. So in some ways that can be giving respect via better expectation; in other ways it could be disrespectful via an increased lack of acknowledgement.
Lol *It takes respect to get respect*
Very, they should have equal rights, by that not altering how we love them. We don't own women they contribute the same they should get the same out? Non of this she is only a woman knock off 10% she will not notice, thoughs day should be forgotten !!!
Not at all.
Women are adequately powered in many respects and often overpowered. The only thing I would say it's needed for is better called "encouraging" them to take responsibility for their experiences, but that has worked thus far, so what's the point? Women still mostly take it as being encouraged to act in ways that make them feel good, not to act as an entity that is responsible for what it experiences.
Hasn’t worked*
Look, I support and treating women fairy and right and giving them chances to excel in life in careers, positions and voting but I do not support women as political head leaders nor trying to be the head of the household.
A society is suppose to be patriarch not matriarch.
I think empowerment of the individual is important. Women or men empowerment doesn't matter - but when we realize everyone is different and everyone has strengths of their own, that's when we'll come together better as a species.
Very important. There's still places in the world where women aren't allowed to be in public without a man by their side. There's places where female babies are killed because they're less desirable than males. There's places where 9-12 year old girls are married off against their wills.
That's why women empowerment is important. We need to strive to, at the very least, not do that shit.
Women empowerment is important, along with any kind of empowerment for people who has been disadvantaged because of gender/race/religion/disabilities. Just keep things equal, then im good. Empower the unempowered until equality is reached 👍🏼
Its not important for me. Because woman already have everything they NEED. However their greed for power will never end
Those kind of sayings reminds me of a certain person from Germany last century if you know what I mean
Ur just mad im right
What a way to ignore what I said. No, I'm not mad at all, you don't have any affect on my life, I just felt like I had to say that.

Women should have equal rights as men and men must understand gender equality and empowerment of women. Because no country can progress without women. So every country must give all rights to women and implement
because we need to treat men and women the same, we can't just say men should be empowered to get a job and be independent... women can do it too...
It is important. I am happy to celebrate International Women's Day tomorrow.
I don’t necessarily think empowerment is the right term for what is important. It should be more about demolishing the social constructs that hold both men and women back.
What makes you think these so called social constructs hold men and women back? If all social constructs are destroyed, can we still be social?
How would anyone fit into anything if there were no social constructs? Seems like it would be a boring society. If a society at all would be possible without these things.
If you dont give things labels, how are going to express even basic emotions? I'd rather fit into some agreed upon ideal than pretend ideals are not real because they have no materialized form.
Social constructs make everything that more simpler and efficient. Not having them would be a nightmare because it would cost so much energy to understand another person. It makes no sense.
Not any more or less then men’s empowerment since men face many inequalities too but women’s is the only thing our society sees to care about
Women should have the same rights as men in every country
Higher than dealing with wealth inequality, but lower than global warming. Somewhere in between there.
It has been causing nothing but problems in the workplace, schools, relationships, and more. The old days were much better for all.
What do you mean when you say empowerment? What actions does require?
equality and non discrimination should be important for everyone that was born from a woman
If we are talking about gender equality sign me up. If we are talking about female supremacy to men then no.
It's clearly the most important topic of the 21st century
Because... I don't have a clue
For me it's important because there is still work to be done in some countries
We need to focus on men now, too many men are suffering
Considering now in my country you can be heavily fined for not having at least 50% of women, I'd say way too much.
I think women are too selfish to be given rights, a reroll of history is what I prefer.
They have ad much power as me so why trynna make women more powerful than men making it unequal?
Interesting at best, Zealous at worst.
i think they are already equals.
Its stupid and unnecessary
I am pro women power
Very important
