Feminism states that the conundrum of being a woman is that you are navigating a male ego in a woman's body.
This allows the patriarchy to enter any one body since the ego is intrinsically male.

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.

the belief that women should be equal to men regarding voting rights (which already passed, so let's skip that) and opportunities and treatment in society and the workforce
unfortunately, feminism has been warped and twisted into misandry and many women claiming to be feminists are actually misandrists

A doctrine, originally formulated during the 18th and 19th century as women's emancipation and suffragetism, that advocated the emancipation of women and attempts to get everyone else to recognize that women have equal rights to men.
Modern feminism is characterized by its doctrine of 'expanding choice for both genders', as feminists ostensibly desire a society where not only women may be allowed to do whatever they please (within reasonable, human limits), but to also allow men to enjoy the same freedoms as women should, which should include the choice of NOT doing something, if they do not wish to do so.
Unfortunately, thanks to misunderstanding and human nature, nobody really believes in this shit anymore, and people stereotypically associate feminists with hairy-armpit owning dykes who hate all men, and opponents of feminists as hairy boorish pig-subhumans.

It's fucking sad, but feminism is a great example of why humanity is a damn sight dumber than everyone likes to believe.

where women believe that they should be EQUAL TO men. not to be confused with feminazi, where women believe that they should be more powerful than men. despite common misconception, feminism is not, let me quote, “the idea that stupid ugly women believe and say they should get the same rights as men, and then claim superiority to men. they believe that men should still hold doors for them and pull out their chairs and treat them like queens. when in fact they should get of their fucking high horse and do it themselves. don’t expect equality when you believe in your superiority. Bitches, sluts, hoes, tramps, cunts.” ah, thanks for that @dungoofed2012
