feminism

A movement created to promote equal rights of men and women alike, simply put.

Many definitions try to degrade this notion by stating that it has backfired and turned into a reason for hating men. This is not the case. The reason people would think this is because in today's society many men are still raised on the notion that women are inferior and must be oppressed. They therefore promote hate against equal rights between men and women and try to degrade it in any way possible. Note that not all men are like this, but the majority are.

There will always be sexist men. That is the unfortunate truth.
Feminism is a notion to equalize the fields and make people realize that men and women are equal in every way.

Feminism does NOT support hate against men, it merely states that men are NOT SUPERIOR TO WOMEN. Get it in your goddamn heads, people.

I love that all the definitions are done by men. Yes, there is a group of women who see it as hate all men and bullshit like that but feminism is and always will be for equality between men and women. The reason that is called feminism is that it focuses on raising women's rights to the same as men. Equalism suggests lowering men's rights down to where women's are. That means that women are charged the same time for the same crime. Women shouldn't be allowed to abuse. It means that men should be able to come forward with sexual assault and not be shushed. It means equality all around. Don't be a sexist asshole and try to say that women are trying to say they are better, the people that are doing that aren't real feminists.
Feminism is actually good if you don't focus on the fake feminists who hate all men because they are men...

feminine

Of a woman. Traditionally, in most cultures, the expectation for a lady to be nurturing, demure, to care for her family, to look beautiful, and to be submissive to her husband(or girlfriend).

But not all women are like that. More than enough women are strong, direct, and independent. What is feminine is what a woman does.
A Gibson Girl hairstyle, white lace dress, subtle makeup, jewelery, romantic poetry, lilies, gardenias. She's feminine.

Denim pants, leather jacket, pierced nose, cropped hair, motorcycle, suits and ties, tools. She's also feminine.
