Summary: In Washington D.C a man was groped and was twerked on without his consent. The incident involved two woman, yet only one has been caught and arrested. They are still looking for the other woman.
Analysis: This is beyond wrong. Many people have opinions on how sexual assault works, some blame the victim, some people treat it as a joke. This is why we are still fighting for equal rights. In this case there was a man who was a victim (which is rather rare) he reported the incident and the law took care of it. This scenario could have gone a different way, some people would have told him he 'Should have enjoyed it' or 'It's not like it matters!'. However women would have been asked 'If they provoked it' or 'Were you wearing the appropriate attire?'(Or taken seriously) This is what feminism is. It's creating a voice for women while not belittling men. Feminism is basically a modern Women's rights movement. The women's rights movement started roughly in the 1840s all the way to today. It is to give women the privilege of the male, because back then women were regarded as less then men.
