You people need to stop slandering the word "feminism." It does not mean women who hate men, want to oppress men, want special treatment, etc. It simply means believing in the equality of the sexes.
If you are speaking about women (or men) who hate men, please use the appropriate vocabulary = misandry, man-haters, or if you really have to feminazi.
