I don't self identify as a femimist because I don't need to really, these women already did all the heart-wrenching work for us, I just worship the women who started it all.......Yay feminism........ |
I have to say that your view is the most healthy and productive and TRULY feminist view I've seen yet. You nailed it exactly.
Too many feminists these days use feminism as a vehicle for misandry, and those feminists seem to be hindering the cause for the rest of women by bringing a negative connotation to what feminism is really about.
I wish more feminists thought like you, though, because the idea of feminism is such a powerful idea and vehicle for women.
