    Feminism is not an ideology of equality

    "You completely missed the point of the first paragraph." [sarcasm]Wow, what a clear explanation.[/sarcasm] "And what's to stop me from turning around that argument? I can just say MRA's are for equality between men and women." This debate is not about MRA's. Stop going off on tangents. "Not to mention the terminology flaw: if its equality for everyone, then calling it feminism seems a rather misleading idea." Agreed, but that doesn't change the definition. "I'm elaborating on the debate." No, you're distracting from it. "Also: that's nonsense. How many feminists do you hear screaming about how domestic violence against men is just as common as it is against women, if not more so? Or how many feminists do you see out in the streets protesting that the education system is massively skewed in favour of girls? Or, at least, how many do you see that DO NOT preface it by saying that it's a part of 'the patriarchy'?" I never said that I agree with the methods of movements that CALL THEMSELVES "feminist". Any philosophy which is not of equality between genders is by definition not feminist, regardless of what they call themselves.
