The battle cry of "feminism" abruptly changed from "equal pay for equal work" to "you go, girl -- you deserve it" (no matter how you get it). Suddenly it was all about "me, me, me" -- the self-indulgent bawl of a spoiled brat.

And this is exactly the problem. Modern women have demanded -- and won -- equal rights and equal pay. But they're too greedy, too materialistic, too self-absorbed, too immature, and too accustomed to using men to do anything with these rights but shoot themselves in the foot with them.

It's all come too easily for them, and, like children who have been handed everything on a plate, they've matured into abusing their privilege and demanding more and more and more.

Yes, many of them are now selfish little brats.
They want the best of both worlds (male, female) for their convenience, just the ups and not the downs. So they became spoiled. That's also why when married, every time these women go through the hard times they just want to divorce. Instead of supporting their husbands.

In response to the first bit:

It is not equal though is it?

From where I sit it is FAR from equal.
