a woman is simultaneously a victim and empowered, until something happens. Then she chooses which state benefits her the most.

Schrödinger's feminism is a type of feminism that has a hypocritical double standard. In it, anything in the world where men have dominance is declared proof of an oppressive tyrannical patriarchy, whereas places where women have dominance (education) is seen as proof that men are inferior. Likewise, men's failures are laughed at while women's successes are applauded. Men's struggles are dismissed as their own fault or even something they deserve. Male led societies are evil while female led societies are justified. Notable purveyors of this ideology include Liza Mundy and Hanna Rosin, and to a small extent also Elizabeth Badinter.
Friend 1: I really feel like my gender studies class is super biased. They claim that men running things is evil but at the same time if women were atop the hierarchy it would be justified when things are reversed.
Friend 2: Schrödinger's feminism is basically what your gender studies class is indoctrinating you guys with. It's hypocrisy at the highest level.

"I am so oppressed!!!"
"Really.. How?"
"I'm not sure yet. But intersectional feminism is opening up whole new horizons in places I can be oppressed!"
"Great! For a moment there I was scared we couldn't be victims any more"

As referred to in Mean Girls, the Rules of Feminism state that no girl can date her friend's:
Ex-Boyfriends,
Crushes,
or
Relatives
Follow these simple rules and avoid hell in Girl World.

That's Regina's ex-boyfriend. Ex-boyfriends are just off-limits to friends. I mean, that's just, like, the Rules of Feminism!" - Gretchen Weiners (Mean Girls)

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.
