There is a perceived resurgence of elements reminiscent of 2010s feminism, with some outlets noting the return of "girlboss" and "girly" aesthetics. However, the implications and significance of this trend are unclear, with some viewing it as empowering and others as reductive or a sign of feminist exhaustion. The meaning and impact of this shift are being debated, with some arguing that mainstream feminism has failed to achieve its goals.
