[Serious] What does "feminism" mean to you? Be honest.

What is your personal _definition_ of feminism? Be honest about it. This is _not_ looking for whether you support feminism, only what the term/concept means to you.

Well I think radicals when I think it, so I'd say crazy women who want the perks of being a woman and the perks of men without the negatives, though I'll also think just women for equal rights, depends on the context.

To me feminism is a word that should not be. Neither the opposing for males whatever the word may be, but feminism is talked about more. So basically my point is - feminism shouldn't be a popular subject because women aren't the only gender being considered unequal.

It's a stupid topic that just as much can be directed to the male gender as well. So it's pointless, might as well just call people bullies lol. Back in school children.

This is the literal definition of 'feminism'

although many women interpret this wrong as "crush all white straight men"

The feminists you guys are talking about are simply radicals. Every group has them. It also gets completely blown out of proportion on the internet because they yell the loudest. Go outside, those radical feminists are few and in between, and often ignored. True feminists are trying to better there conditions without demolishing someone elses in the process.

I have known women on both ends of the spectrum. Feminism that promotes equality is a good thing; however, if it turns into discrimination it becomes a problem.
