Questions

Part of why I think about this comes from my own experience of being falsely accused years ago and feeling overwhelmingly powerless while institutions treated the accusation seriously before I had much opportunity to defend myself. When I later expressed anger and frustration about what happened, I was often dismissed as misogynistic, an “incel,” or someone with a victim mentality rather than having the underlying issue addressed.

That experience is only one example, though, and I’m interested in the broader question: has modern feminism actually produced equality between men and women, or has it created areas where women now have an unfair amount of social, institutional, or legal power over men?
