There's a big difference between modern and traditional feminist. A traditional feminist, about 5% of feminists, is someone who wants women to be equal, but doesn't push it so hard. Modern feminists want women to be treated specially. They go with the "Don't hit women" "Hold the door open for women" and then go being sexist "Be a man!!" "Men don't cry!!" They expect the man to try and save the women, but when they do yell at them they're a strong independent women. Will call you sexist for not being a feminist, and claims women are oppressed with the backup being? Umm? They hate men and go with slogans like "Kill all men" and really aren't the people who are pleasant to be around. They also insist they're oppressed, ignore the fact pretty much all of them are white cisgender. Some of their favourite things to do include being sexist, insisting women are always the victims, dumping mens rights because it doesn't benefit them, etc. Now lets move on to traditional feminist: Wants equality, supports the mens rights movement (Because they support equality) calls out sexism but doesn't scream their heads off at anything slightly harming a girl, things like that.
Modern feminist: WHY ARE YOU AGAINST ABORTION IT'S THE WOMENS BODY!!!!
Normal person: No, it's the babies body.
Modern feminist: WHAT THE HELL YOU SEXIST BLEH *Yelling*
Normal person: leaves
Man: -crying- My girlfriend broke up with me...
Modern Feminist: TAKE IT LIKE A MAN MEN DON'T CRY YOU BITCH YOU'RE TRYING TO MANIPULATE HER BY CRYING
Normal person: Bro she's not even around.
Modern feminist: YOU'RE NOT A FEMINIST FUCK YOU SEXIST BITCH YOU FIGHT FOR THINGS THAT DON'T HELP ME
Traditional feminist: Men can cry as they have emotions too. And abortion is a touchy subject, but it is not sexist as they're not doing it to control a womans body. It's pretty much the equivilant of not letting men manspread. The people in this situation didn't do anything sexist.
Modern feminist: YES THEY DID YOU'RE OPPRESSING ME
Traditional feminist: You were born in the US, you're white, you're cisgender. Don't tell me you're fucking oppressed.
Modern feminist: -Screaming about bullshit-
Normal person: No, it's the babies body.
Modern feminist: WHAT THE HELL YOU SEXIST BLEH *Yelling*
Normal person: leaves
Man: -crying- My girlfriend broke up with me...

Get the Feministmug. Feminists are not man haters. It is not women who refuse to shave. It is not women who only get abortions and don’t believe in relationships. We are women who want change not just for ourselves , but for everyone who has been underestimated and held back from equality. It’s men and women fighting for gender equality.

Get the Feministmug. A feminist is a person of any gender who believes in equal rights of all genders, society usually think of feminists as a community of females who love male bashing..but the truth is it is all about being treated equally and being given equal opportunities
Person 1 - she wants the same wage as her co-worker john
Person 2 - damn she wants equality must be a feminist.

Get the Feministmug. A feminist is a person who supports equal rights for men and women. Some things they might want in society are equal pay, and respect as people for many years have labeled males as the superior sex and degraded women.
A feminist can be a male or female.
Many people don’t like feminists as women take it too far and become “men haters” and say phrases like “men ain’t crap”. But this is not what feminism stands for. It is for equality not superiority.

Get the Feministmug. 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 Feministmug. a feminist is someone who wants women to have all the rights of men, but none of the responsibilities. for example, the draft, equal sentencing, and equal custody are all things that should come with equal rights..
