isn't feminism sexist in the way that it teaches girls to be victims?
there's *no* way you can be a feminist without victimising girls and teaching them that they are victims to society when they're actually not

"Isn't feminism sexist in the way that it teaches girls to be victims?"
Yes, and also in the way it promotes affirmative action for women and discrimination against men. It promotes an unlevel playing field in order to force an equal outcome, even where there is already equality of opportunity.
This really says that women are NOT equal in ability and need to simply be shortcutted into positions without going through the same process as a more qualified male has to. This is in addition to the continued propaganda that women and ONLY women have been victims of oppression since time immemorial. If that was actually true then unfortunately it would be the natural order of things. But they don't want to say that either. They promote women are superior when it's time to gloat, otherwise women are always victims.

It teaches girls that women are not much different from men and shouldnt be treated by society as if they are. It teaches them to stand up for what's right or what's equal

Feminism actually promotes girls NOT to be victims by empowering them. Women were victims long before feminism came along. Check out the link - there was rape in Greek and Roman times as well.

Yes, it's sexist, though I think you mean teaching them to have a victim mentality, even when they are not really victimized.

It teaches them to be victims and claim benefits for being victims.
