On top of that, our federal government has created its own, un-elected bureaucracy to enforce both unpopular taxes and unjust laws. Sure, a citizen can call their Congressman and complain, but that Congressman is more likely to play the politics of Washington than listen to the complaints of their constituents. With very little representation, taxes are levied on the average citizen that often pay for services or programs that the citizen never voted on or asked for. Jefferson goes on to accuse King George of a multitude of power abuses, namely taxation without consent and establishing a bureaucracy of un-elected officials to enforce unjust and unpopular laws. Look at other countries and see how much better off we are.

I am all for equality, however, in my opinion, it has been achieved, and women are thriving more than ever.

When the 19th amendment was established, the feminist movement for suffrage, to allow women (well all people regardless of their gender), to vote was a hallmark event involving feminism that I appreciate. There is no such thing as female oppression in this current day. There is no such thing as the wage cap, male counterparts make just as much as their female counterparts if they have equal amounts of experience, education, and other professional credentials that are deemed valuable by a company. Both genders have given society a cornucopia of memorable milestones in this and other lifetimes.

I think that men should be given more credit in terms of their contribution to society, without being thought of as demeaning to women. Referring to a specific gender as a collective to assign blame to various problems will not solve these issues. I don’t want to be associated with this third/fourth wave of feminism that essentially hates on the entire male gender and talks about how much females suffer due to their behavior. Despite that, I would call myself a postmodern feminist. I am a cunning connoisseur of stuffed bears, a gullible girl that falls victim to the enticing trends of manicures and facial masks, and a dedicated disciple of the colors red, pink, and purple.
