Rosin is not wrong that life has improved in measurable ways for women, but she is wrong in suggesting that better is good enough.
In her book "Bad Feminist: Essays," Roxane Gay discusses the progress made in women's lives, acknowledging that some measurable improvements have occurred. However, she critiques the notion that these advancements should be seen as sufficient. Although there are areas where conditions have become better for women, Gay emphasizes that settling for these incremental changes overlooks the ongoing struggles and injustices that persist in society.
Gay's perspective highlights the importance of continuing the fight for women's rights rather than being complacent. She argues that while acknowledging progress is vital, it should not serve as an endpoint. The pursuit of true equality and justice for women remains an urgent issue, and merely recognizing improvements without striving for further change falls short of what feminism aims to achieve.
