Some people think that Feminism means a bunch of crazy women trying to overpower men. Not so. It's an effort to create FAIRNESS for women. That's all. Therefore any self-respecting woman IS a feminist. It's just that this term sounds pretty aggressive, but that's all. Yes, there are a few crazy/bad apples in every group, and this one is not an exception. This term is different from male chauvinism or sexism. We all know women couldn't even vote many years ago, work outside the home, etc. It was discrimination. Blacks can relate to this. The feminist movement tries to get equal pay for women, and an equal voice in society.
