    Because of feminism, more women have been able to get educated.
Children (boys and girls) that are raised by parents that attended college are vastly more likely to attend college than children whose parents did not attend. Having an educated mother is a HUGE leg up as a foundation for a young man.

I watched my own mother start a business, run for local school board and write op-eds for our local paper. These things had a strong impact on me and without feminism, it's unlikely she would have had these opportunities.
