The reaction of the mere mention of feminism usually proves the need for feminism

4 panel comic of two people talking

1 A: "WHY ARE YOU A FEMINIST?"

B: "BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN EQUALITY."

2 A: "THEN YOU SHOULD CALL YOUR- SELF AN "EQUALIST" OR "EGALITARIAN"."

B: "I USE "FEMINIST" BECAUSE MY MAIN FOCUS IS ON THE UNEQUAL STATUS OF WOMEN."

3 A: "SO YOU ONLY CARE ABOUT WOMEN. THAT'S NOT EQUALITY - THAT'S REVERSE SEXISM."

B, pausing to think: "I SEE WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. LET ME REPHRASE MY ANSWER."

4 B, pointing at A: "YOU."
"YOU ARE THE REASON I'M A FEMINIST."

I feel like you just want to be angry, I find it sad that you don't want people to have the ability to self identify as feminists, feels very counter productive.

I know I am an ally because of my friends. My friends would not be my friends if I was some 4chan trolling women hating degenerate, and some angry internet person who is looking for an argument won't make me second guess that. 😊

Also "you being an ally is for the oppressed group to decide" is a really ignorant statement, a group can't collectively decide something like that, those groups are made up of individuals with individual beliefs. Thinking of them as a hive mind like that gives credibility to right wing conspiracies, which again is hurting your own cause.

You know the more I think about it the more I think you are actually some 4chan troll on here trying to enrage people into hating feminists.. that would be very uncool. Either way I'm done with this conversation since it's not really a conversation, its going no where haha, enjoy your weekend.
