Are modern Feminists the High point of Equality?

No.

I am a feminist. I am proud to be a feminist and always have been.

But what we today imagine as equality, liberty, and justice is almost certainly going to look barbaric to people even a hundred years from now, let alone five hundred.

Modern feminists I think will continue, at their best, to push forward narratives that challenge arbitrary social ideas, expand the range of permissible options, and achieve a greater level of equity and fairness. We will deal with serious injustices against women.

But we will miss huge problems. We will misunderstand human nature and we will make mistakes in terms of crafting institutions to achieve human potentials. We will misunderstand the ecology, the world and the laws of physics, and we will make laws and policies that don't work.

No modern feminist, anarchist, libertarian socialist, progressive, humanist, or any other people fighting for progress are the high points of wisdom, equality, justice, freedom, or anything else. We have so much work to do and we have so much inherited damage that we will have to hope that we leave behind less work for the next generation.

Feminism and equality aren't the same thing. Women and Men can NEVER be equal, sorry but that's the truth. Men and women ARE different, we have different levels of hormones in our systems, our brains are wired differently, body strength is different with men in general being stronger than women, some of our actions have different outcomes depending if you are male or female. Take sex, the odds of a man becoming pregnant is 0, that's not true for women.

Now feminism used to mean, same pay for the same job, same opportunities for both men and women, both of which I agree with. If you can do the job you should be paid x amount no matter what sex you happen to be. In a nutshell, life needs to be as gender neutral as possible. But true equality is impossible.
