Ok, a lot of definitions on here are really defensive and sad. Who hurt you people? Feminism is just equal rights between men and women. How would you feel if your mother, sister, wife, or daughter was called a “bitch” or a “slut”? I hope you would feel horribly about it because that would be the normal human reaction to have. Jesus Christ you people are scary.
Joe: “Hello fellow human. Seeing as you are a female member of our shared species, I was wondering if you could explain to me what feminism is?”
Jane: “Of course fellow human being. Although, you don’t have to be a woman in order to understand feminism. It is the belief that although we have a few differences between us, we can easily co-exist in equal standing because we are both humans and don’t really have a whole lot of differences.”
Joe: “Oh, that’s nice. Do you wanna hangout with me and my pet dog?”
Jane: “Sure!”
And they lived happily ever after because at the end of the day, who cares about what our differences are when there is a dog that needs our attention.

Get the Feminismmug. A movement trying to liberate women across the world from oppression. Though people give it a lot of hate, it is here to help women get economical, political and social justice!
Though the corporate feminism has poisoned what feminism fights for and many pseudofeminists are hypocrites, it is still a necessary movement for women. Most feminists stand for rape prevention, domestic violence help and no sex trafficking and not girl power lipsticks and a female version of ghostbusters! The media will try to make us sound ridiculous so people don't take us seriously. It's propaganda!
Keep in mind, all good feminism is intersectional as hearing the voices of women of colour, poor women, disabled women etc is just as important!

Not like Other Girls™: Feminism has become a joke! #WomenAgainstFeminism
Feminist: Please tell that to the eleven-year-old who had to give birth to her rapist's baby and the sixteen-year-old who got sentenced to 61 years in prison for standing up to her sexual abuser.
Misogynist: Actually, men get raped toooooo! Women just hate men!
Feminist: *sighs*
Feminist: While, it is true that men get raped and male victims should be just as valid, most of these perpetrators are men. Women don't hate men as much as men hate women and men hate each other. And what's sad is that misogyny has seen women murdered, tortured and abused yet what men define as "women hating men" is #MenAreTrash tweets and internet trolls. These aren't comparable.
