But the biggest betrayal of the WEP is its love for authoritarianism and state power. I shouldn’t have to remind it that it was the government which didn’t allow women to vote, and institutionalised gender inequality. Past feminist movements stood against government control over their work life and reproductive rights, yet modern feminism takes no issue with using the state to regulate society. The party aiming for women’s equality believes in compulsory sex education and consent classes without seeing a hint of irony in the fact that such classes wouldn’t be consensual at all. Even worse, the organisation openly flirts with the idea of mandatory quotas in certain professions, which leave women unsure whether they are being employed for their skills or because of mandated policy.
