Degradation and maltreatment are forcing a woman to do this for a man she doesn't like. Respecting the freedom of a woman to behave even like this for the man she chooses, is respecting that woman's rights, and therefore it's feminism.
So, in the past, women were mistreated by force and against their will. But, in the present, thanks to the freedom and the rights brought by feminism to women, women are mistreated because they choose to and they want to. Thanks feminism for helping women
