I am a intersectional feminist! AMA

Class does play a big factor in privelege and opportunities(one of the reason why I belive in intersectional feminism). but working class men tend to go into more labour jobs such as building and plumbing where they can earn a good enough money from compared to women where often working class "jobs"(such as sale assistants) for women tend to lack money. Often the man will be earning the more money within the family than the woman and it still "head of the house". I feel this is due to sterotypical gender roles are more reinforced(due to lack of education) thus men are still more likely to be paid. Here's a survey done by the working class women and feminsim

In terms of the MRA, it does touch on alot of ethics such as "does a man have the same right as a woman when it comes to abortion" which I am happy to debate and I agree that when it comes to children, men have just the same right to see a child if a couple get divorce, the man should just have the same right to see the child

In terms of social postioning such as jobs and education, men have always had a domanice. Think about the most powerful people in the world, really you could aruge that Queen Elizabeth the 2nd and Germany's chancellor Angela Merkel have some sort of power over the world, and really it's not alot. The music industry, TV, Film industry, major sports industries(such as FIFA) are all controlled by men. It's kinda sad that we get exicted when a woman does something for the first time because it shouldn't be the case. You could aruge that "Well women want to go into less hard working jobs!" but we're promoted from a young age that "Oh because you're a woman, you don't have to work hard because a man will come and save you!" That is the problem I have.

. Like feminsm, the MRA is intersectional so there is no one answer.
