Feminism is not anything that people around here said. First and last, Feminism is a a noun that comprehend ideas and beliefs about women and men having the same rights within academia, politics or just your home.

Some Dumb Feminist: "I support Feminism, women have rights!"
Well-Educated Person: "HA! Name them."
Feminism was never about equality, its simpler than that, it's about who gets what, just like war.
In a war, a group of people sees something another group has (be it money, power, or resources) that they have a (usually) financial interest in, and they decide they want it enough to take it. Once the other group has it, it's hardly ever shared equally with other groups, it's just a different group that has it now. Feminism is the same thing, the intention of a feminist is not equality for all human beings (it's never been that selfless), it's who gets what, it always was who gets what. The equality rhetoric has always been a distraction that sounded good to the most varied groups of people. There is no such thing as everybody wins, there is only who gets what. Negotiation is one person or group trying to talk another person or group into giving up or surrendering, it's never been in anyone's best interest but the ones trying to get other people to negotiate or compromise.
What feminism used to be
A fight for equal rights between men and women. Such as the rights to vote and own land. It was a good cause.
What feminism is now
Still a good cause, most women have gotten basic human rights, but we still fight for the ones who don't. There are also many other things such as d/m/stic v/olence (o, m, i) and r/pe (a) that are still very large problems that need to be solved. Intersectionality is also something that needs to be studied more in depth. I am in no way saying that men do not have these problems too, I am just saying it is more common that women have these problems. You can be a feminist man.
Feminism is a rad cause that anyone can support. It also includes trans women and non binary people.
