About This Quote
This particular strand of feminism is characterized by two tenets: 1. men are jerks, and 2. women should strive by all means to become like them. This is a highly controversial idea.
On the one hand, there are those who believe that women are indeed superior to men in every way they can think of. They point out that women are better at everything from cooking to driving to parenting to business to art, etc. This side believes that women are better suited for everything because they are "the fairer sex." On the other hand, there are those who believe that women are not superior to men in any way at all.
Instead, they point out that women can be very cruel and spiteful, as well as very demanding and self-centered. They claim they are their own worst enemies because they tend to be competitive with each other instead of co-operative with each other on projects or projects together. This side believes that it can't just be about having the best at everything; it has to be about working together as a team if we want to accomplish anything at all.
