The reason western feminism focuses on petty things is because, if you ignore problems in Islam, all the big battles have been won.

Social expectations of men & women but I'm not sure they need to be fought so much as confidently defied.

are there any policy related issues though? Also who would u say face bigger/more battles related to their gender: women or men?

Not very many & they tend to work both ways. Eg maternity leave vs paternity leave. Both sexes claim discrimination.

Legally, I think only other diff is MGM remaining legal whilst FGM is not. But FGM not prosecuted here & much more damaging

There is no law stating that men should get longer sentences than women for same crimes but they do anyway.
