western sexism is when your father tells you to “put some clothes on” when you wear jeans, a leather jacket and a crop top, but says nothing when your brother has no shirt on
Western sexism is a man on the street telling me what he would do to my 12 year old body if I came home with him, walking down the street to be called “sexy” by men I don’t know, to have inappropriate comments made on my body when I’m just trying to walk to school: but have all of this harrasment stop when a male walks beside me
Western sexism is when a girl is always “asking for it”, and a boy always “wants it”
Western sexism is still sexism. We understand that eastern women have it worse: and we are fighting for them too.
But when a person break their finger, you don’t say “well, some people have broken their arms” and walk away. If you use eastern sexism to dismiss western sexism: you are a problem.
Sexism is sexism.
feminism is needed everywhere
