Might help also to describe what you think feminism is, since it’s one of those terms that is overloaded.

I once had a physical therapist tell me she wasn’t a feminist because she thought women couldn’t be as physically capable as men when serving as soldiers, and seemed to believe feminism requires treating women exactly like men.

I told her I was a feminist because I believe in equal rights for men and women, an idea she did not seem so opposed to.

    sorry I think we’re lacking context here, is this an alt account? I don’t see your opinion here 🤔

    why were you mocked?

      I deleted it…

      Because I said I hate the man-hating “feminism” that was popular a few years ago, and that I am a good person. Ofc you can’t be feminist if you dislike sexist women.

      That was only like 1/3 or 1/4 of what I said and you can find it if you search for the deleted reply here, as only that part is deleted.

      Edit: I restored it, you can go read and downvote now. Didn’t know you can restore.
