Movement that promotes the equality of not only man and women, but also the rights of every human independently of race, age, nationality, sexuality, religion.
Often confused by the empowerment of women and oppression of man.
Most people don't believe that feminism supports equality, seeing that the base of the movement's name is "female", feminism was created firstly to support the oppressed gender at the moment which were females but as years passed by, feminism started to support other oppressed groups such as homosexuals, transgendered, Muslim, Jews, etc..
Feminism also fights against gender roles, stereotypes, beauty standards and other problems commonly found in today's society.
Feminism means, in fact, equality.
I'm a hardcore feminist that fights for the equality of every human being!

The support of equal rights for women, no more, no less than the rights of men. But insane women have changed it into being sexist to men which is unfair and hypocritical. As a woman (only saying this so people know that Iβm not some guy who thinks he knows about the female experience) I think that women are being too extreme.
Person A: As a feminist I believe that women are the superior gender.
Person B: Thatβs very hypocritical isnβt it? Youβre using feminism as a shield to hide being sexist.

I stand by this definition when discussing feminism, just means equality for both men and women.
It has become a bad word in part because of some Tumblr girls who call themselves radical feminists and it's not that relevant nowadays in most countries we got equal rights, but it's still important in some places.

Feminists are the rulers of Tumblr. They are against anything related to men, and they love anything related to women, even if it's not necessarily good. Don't dare mess with them especially when women are even slightly miss-treated, because they WILL come for you. Feminists hate men, they show this by macking things like anti-manspreading chairs among others.
Feminism is taking over Tumblr.
