true feminism

the idea of true equality between men and women, not just treating women better than men and calling it 'equal.'

women being held to the same expectations, consequences, etc. as men.
Suzie says women should be able to have an abortion without a man's decision, but thinks men should also be required to pay child support if the woman wants to keep her baby--again, regardless of the man's decision. Suzie's ideas are not true feminism.

Pseudo-Feminism

False or fake feminism.

When Women act or say they are self sufficient and don't need Men for happiness. Also striving for equal rights and equal

Basically being independent from Men's help and becoming self sufficient, yet not dismissing the social perks. Which if they did, would make them truly self sufficient.

Note: I am NOT saying that Women have no social disadvantages and that Men have no social advantages.
Female: I'm not going to have sex right now, I don't want to. I should not be treated as an object because I am a Woman. I am going to be strong, I don't need any help from Men to be happy.

Male: Ok. I think that is good.

Female: Good, hold my bags and come shopping with me, and my birthday is coming up, buy me a gift. $500 minimum.

Male: Cut the Pseudo-Feminism crap.

Female 1: No thank you.
F.C.: Dont worry you'll feel better after a couple of shots.
Female 1: No thanks.
