Not actively discriminating against men, in the eyes of feminism is discrimination against women..... So your right young khaza, feminism is more rightly about superiority or subjugation of men.
Of course wanting to have this conversation means you must be an evil tool of the patriarchy. Who do you hate women so much? Did a women laugh at your little wee wee once?
Just prepping you for the intelligent questions the apologists for feminism are likely to ask you.
i'm all for equality. in general terms, i might even describe myself as an 'apologist' for feminism, as you put it (i think the term is slightly loaded, but i appreciate the humour

). i understand the tenets and justifications of/for intellectual feminism - i just think that both the term and concept are now so far removed from original intent that it is time we reflected that in intellectual discourse. as per previous thread:
Chauvinism -- Equality -- Feminism
the article i have posted is a flagrant and all too common example of the normalisation of the former in modern, colloquial discourse. the beeb being about as colloquial as discourse gets these days. that website makes the Sun look heavy.
