Part 6/7:
The speaker suggests that the complexities and contradictions faced by women today are, in fact, the result of feminism and societal shifts promoted by its ideals. They argue that feminism has fostered a culture where women are encouraged to pursue career success and independence, yet still face societal expectations to be nurturing, kind, and non-confrontational. The claim is made that "the problem is feminism," implying that modern feminist movements have complicated traditional gender roles rather than resolving gender inequalities straightforwardly.
