Sorry but from a former feminist, you can say feminism is about women being equal to men but it doesn’t change the fact that the movement is overrun with misandrists, racists, sexists, and homophobic women who say they do it in the name of “feminism”.

It isn’t ignorance when a feminist started S.C.U.M, AKA society for cutting up men.

It isn’t ignorance when a feminist starts campaigns like “mansplaining” ,“heforshe”, “Banbossy”, etc. because someone said something they don’t like.

It isn’t ignorance when radical feminists denounce women like myself who are bisexual by calling us misogynistic, saying we’re being abused, that our male partners are rapists, that bisexual women are women who are simply trying to have the best of both worlds, that heterosexual women are being held captive, etc.

It isn’t ignorance or weak to separate yourself from a movement that is toxic and harmful to you, and to those around you. They aren’t making themselves look silly by stating they aren’t a feminist, because what matters is that they care about equality, not the label someone uses.

Many anti-feminists are educated. They are educated about the harmful propaganda feminism perpetuates, they are educated about the harmful mentality of many feminists, they are educated on the misinformation on feminism spreads.

Instead of trying to guilt people into using the feminist label or stop them from denouncing it, fix the movement. Stop letting it be overrun with harmful radfems and toxic information and maybe people will start calling themselves feminists again.
