>that people give China an unnecessary amount of hate for being paternalistic when women1 are doing better politically and economically than they are here.
Debateable, I think they are getting exactly enough and if not even less backlash.
I don't think China is "backwards". I don't think anyone above has said that. Being critical is not hate and it's weird that TangerineX and you feel this way. I can say Japan has done horrendous war crimes in Nanking during WWII, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanking_Massacre, and that they are unapologetic for it, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_history_textbook_controversies. Does this mean that I hate Japan? No, is pointing out a factual event in history that has happened. Is it critical, yes. Hateful no.
Yes, I can talk about how the 2016 election and how American Media and the people treated Hillary Clinton was completely sexist and misogynistic, but I post that stuff to r/politics and r/twoxchromosomes. It would be a non-sequitur to this sub. It has nothing to do specifically with asian feminism.
There is discord in China about feminism. http://www.latimes.com/world/asia/la-fg-china-feminist-activists-20160614-snap-story.html and Japan https://www.amazon.com/Broken-Silence-Voices-Japanese-Feminism/dp/0520085140. This is not something that happened over the past 5 years or so, this has been a movement since the 70's.
