A feminist is usually NOT a man/woman (usually woman) who wants equality between sexes, instead, they want females to be dominant in society. So basically they are fucking retards.

Get the feminist mug.Someone who fought for women's rights after the suffragettes. Not to be confused with someone who fights for gender equality (equalist). Not existent in the modern world as this is confused with feminazi.

Get the Feminist mug.Any person who thinks that women are human beings, equal to men, and opposes the subjugation of women. Any person who believes that women aren't second class citizens, have minds, and should be able to be something other than domestic help or a factory for producing sons. A man can be a feminist. Not all feminists hate men, or are lesbians.

Get the feminists mug.FEMINISM WAS NOT CREATED TO BE AND IS NOT ANTI MAN. At the very beginning of feminism you find the suffragette movement. Women wanting the right to vote. Then there was the Feminist movement in the 60’s and 70’s it was mainly about equal work and pay for women (which women still don’t have. Go look at some unbiased data it’s clear.) None of these movements were looking to take away a mans right to vote, or his job, or take away from their pay check. It was simply giving women the same benefits that men were given. To this day they are not looking to take away any of a mans rights or privileges(and the fact that now this word is mostly associated with negativity about men just makes it clear what fucking happened.) The only reason “feminist” has become a “bad word” is because men have misinterpreted it. The radical feminists that hate men are literally 1 out of 500 maybe. People have taken those radical women who identify as feminists and made the whole feminist movement anti man. Yes, I know women and men are very different physically,but even if we go from that point of view it still doesn’t explain everything. If women are more nurturing why are there more men doctors then women. If women are better at teaching why are there more men professors than women. Men have higher paying jobs in all these fields no matter what body you have. It has nothing to do with who is more naturally fit for the job and has more to do with the bias our world still has toward women.
Hello I’m a feminist I believe in the equality of men and women.
Have you learned about the feminist movement in history class yet?

Get the Feminist mug.A feminist is someone who believes in equality for both men and women. A feminist advocates for equal rights for men and women, and for the right to express and not suppress oneself. One example of this is the feminist's fight to end toxic masculinity, which is the notion that men must follow strict gender roles or else they are not "manly" enough, a popular example of which is that men aren't supposed to cry.

Get the Feminist mug.A feminist is someone who believes in equal rights between men and women. There are many intricacies to the expression of feminism and being a feminist. Despite race, gender, sexual orientation, and such: Anyone can be a feminist.
However, just like anything else, people can ruin feminism for others by giving being a feminist a bad image. Some do this by slinging the term around to excuse unacceptable behavior, while others have coined the term as an insult. Don't be that person. Just live your life, and love.

Person 1: Did you know that Alex is a feminist?
Person 2: Nah, I can't believe that. What a loser. I didn't peg Alex as that type of person. Aren't feminists the scum of the earth?
Person 1: Well, that depends on who you're asking. But knowing Alex... Alex is kind, and just wants equality between men, women, and everyone inbetween.
Person 2: oh???

Get the Feminist mug.A person who believes that all genders are EQUAL. All these other definitions of feminism are shitty and incorrect. A person who believes women are better than men is NOT a feminist, OK?!
Example of a feminist
Person 1: we need to strive to improve equal rights for ALL - However, since the most repressed gender right now is female, we should probably prioritise improving their rights.
Not a feminist
Person: I HATE MEN!!!! THEY'RE ALL TRASH!!!!
