Rational feminist tweeps who have not abandoned me, I know you still exist & do good work!

I get on well w/ Retired Liberal Feminists, Equity Feminists &Non-intersectional Liberal Feminists w/ a high threshhold of sexism-detection!

I mostly have conflict with intersectional (3rd wave) feminists & occasionally radfems.

I don't even know what any of that means. I consider myself to be a feminist because I want equality for everyone.

Because you're using the word 'feminist' as synonymous with 'the aim for gender equality' rather than any partic theories or tenets?

In practice, its almost impossible to find feminists who don't accept ideas of patriarchy & cultural constructivism. I know of 6!

Unfortunately anyone can call themselves a feminist and not understand "it's complicated" :-(

Yes, the movement is supported by many many people who just think it's the same thing as the aim for gender equality.

What's more important is to realise that people can't be labelled like canned goods.

Yes. Can't tell others what they are.
