ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Equality feminism

Okay kiddo, let's talk about equality feminism. Some people think that boys are better than girls or that girls should be treated differently. That's not okay. Equality feminists believe that everyone, regardless of their gender, deserves the same rights and opportunities.

Think of it this way - imagine you and your friend both like playing basketball. If one day you find out that your friend is getting more playing time or better equipment just because they are a boy, that wouldn't be fair, right? Equality feminists want to make sure that everyone, whether they are a boy or a girl, has the same chances to play basketball or do whatever they love.

So, equality feminism is all about fairness and treating people equally, no matter what their gender is. It's like making sure everyone gets the same amount of cake at a birthday party, no matter if they are a boy or a girl. Are you following me, kiddo?
