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.

Get the Feminismmug. 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 I’m 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: That’s very hypocritical isn’t it? You’re using feminism as a shield to hide being sexist.

Get the Feminismmug. "the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes."
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.

Get the Feminismmug. To pretend that women are equal to men until there are consequences or responsibilities, then we need to give women special treatment.
Feminism demands more female soldiers but unlike men shouldn't be forcefully drafted into the army in case of war.

Get the Feminismmug. 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.
