well nothing wrong being a feminist.Its just that majority of feminists don't work for equal rights.
since this thread concerns both women and women's education(kind of) I want to raise a question.
If girls are allowed to have free education in BD(correct me if I was wrong) why aren't boys allowed to?

What is equal right?
Nowadays in Bangladesh the so-called feminists are very active and they always shout about "equal rights for women". I'm not sure how they define "equal rights". I think the "equal rights" is a fair distribution of conveniences provided by the government among men and women. But now in the country I think its meaning is quite different. Women are granted huge supplementary advantages, whereas men are being deprived of their rights. For example, in the education sector, girls are studying free of cost and are also provided with scholarships, which is certainly a discrimination. The consequence of this discrimination is transparent to us. In the recent years girls are doing very well in public exams compared to the boys. Doesn't the country require good results from the boys as well? In public transportation seats are sometimes reserved for women. When they talk about equality why do they have extra benefits? Providing women with extra benefits will not pay well in the long run. The country will suffer as a result of this. So I urge the concerned authorities to reconsider equality.
