I don't think you can label Feminism as one belief system, at least I can't. There seems to be reasonable Feminism, equal work for equal pay, etc, and then Radical, Men Hating, Feminism, and everything in between. I judge people as individuals, even Commie, Progressives. LOL!

Feminism is empowering women, however they choose to live (so long as it doesn't negatively impact other women). In America hijab is a choice. A feminist respects a housewife as much as an executive, as long as the women act on their own agency.

Well stated. And much too nuanced for the OP's comprehension, who probably gets his views on feminism from Rush Limbaugh.

I've never met a neo-feminist who believes that. They think SAHMs and housewives are idiots who are duped into believing that having a loving relationship and/or family matters. Because to them it does not.

What matters to today's feminists? Being pro-abortion, anti-marriage and anti-men. They are truly hate-filled and very scary to watch. Big Red anyone?

No one is surprised that strong women who don't need or want men telling them what to do with their lives or their bodies would be threatening to you. Your posts on the thread about choice make that abundantly clear.

It's also clear you never met a feminist in your life. Your post here reads like a series of Rush Limbaugh talking points. Mindless blather without substance.

Complete BS! You interact with feminists on here all the time and NONE of us stand for any of the crazy things you said there.

There is a pattern here on CD though...you never pass up a chance to take a swipe at women. Who hurt you so badly?

Am I supposed to know who that person is? I don't.

You misread my posts.

Neofeminism is not about equality. It is about rights above and beyond equality. it is about destruction of the family.

There are no neofeminist views that include marriage or motherhood. True, classic feminism does include them, as it aimed to support all women.

Facts aren't threatening.
