Feminism
"Feminism is the same male-chovinism, but the other way"
In my opinion, these concepts do not represent the same way. Feminism is a movement and social positions that seek gender equality for women on the rights have been denied in political, cultural, sexual and economic areas.
The male-chovinism is a set of socially constructed attitude for people and is associated with the masculine. These attitudes consider women inferior and submissive to men.
The feminism seeks gender equality between woman and men. On the other hand, male-chovinism considers men superior to woman. Therefore, they are not inverse concepts. The male-chovinism promotes gender violence; its end is not the same way.
Putting the concepts in parallel is contradicting a way of thinking and a struggle that wants to claim that all people have the same rights and that fights against all forms of oppression and discrimination, with an ideology that considers men superior and have privileges because of the fact that they are.
