The idea that men and women are equal and should have equal rights and social standards. This is often twisted into man-hating, however, it is not. If you do not agree with feminism then you are sexist.
Boy: “I think men and women should be treated equally”
Girl: “oh so you agree with feminism? That’s great!”

the radical notion that women are people.
"I'm a feminist, so I don't think you should hit women"
"If it's really equal rights shouldn't it be fine?"
"Many women are in physically abusive relationships. The problem is you do hit us feminism is telling you we'd like you to stop!"

A movement that seeks to dismantle patriarchal systems which have historically oppressed women and gender diverse people. Patriarchy consists of male rule. Under patriarchy leaders are not held accountable and have unchecked privilege and power. Socio pathic traits are valued over genuine leadership skills such as compassion, openess, and justice seeking.
All genders are capable of upholding and perpetuating patriarchal violence.
Current feminism is intersectional. A term coined by Kimberle Crenshaw which explores various intersecting oppression. For instance, a wealthy black queer woman will experience deeper layers of prejudice based on race, sexual orientation and gender but have class privilege
A poor cis white woman will experience classism but will have cis white privilege. It's imperative to use ones privilege to stand up for more marginalized people.
Feminism seeks to dismantle these oppressive systems in hopes of implementing more liberating models where people are free to express and be who they are without fear of discrimination.
Some feminists are matriarchal. Matriarchy is NOT patriarchy with women in power. Matriarchy is an entirely different system where women are leaders, and communication, accountability, and transparency are prioritized. Under matriarchy life is more sustainable for all living things.
The definitions of feminism provided on this website are inaccurate and written by women-hating fearful ignorant people.
"I am a feminist because women deserve equal pay for equal work"
"I am a feminist because I believe that women who are raped shouldn't be asked what they were wearing"

Feminism is often made fun by cuckservatard's because some feminist are crazy but the majority are not but the actual definition is the belief all gender's/sexes should have equal right's usually conservatives will say that there is no unfair treatment among society which is another reason they dislike feminism but a good amount liberals don't put it against them there have been studies showing that the republican brain is less likely to see problem in the world

Because nothing says women's empowerment like treating a woman like a piece of meat, pounding her til the condom breaks, and then hauling her off to an abortion clinic.
Feminism has done irreparable harm to women's equality.

A plastic, lidded plastic urinal jug specifically designed for women.
{Jackie}: Hey Doral, can you please pass me the Feminator under your car seat, I really have to go!
{Doral}: Sure Jackie, but it kinda reeks because somebody forgot to douche off the asinine thing from our last road trip.
{Jackie}: That's alright -- just pass me the fucking thing before I piss my panties!
