"new feminism" focuses on society that we live in currently. There is nothing wrong with feminism growing and expanding, as that is what the suffragette's fought for. They wanted women to have rights, women to live safely, women to be treated as equals.
Issues now are rape culture, the glass ceiling, women of color being imprisoned for ridiculous amounts of time for protecting themselves against their abusers, gender roles that suffocate not only women but men. Do you think the suffragettes would be disappointed?
