Just look at where and why the movement started and you will have an idea of "why Feminism"

see egalitarianism

feminism "in theory" is already for that. The problem is execution.

But that is the rub, say as a woman, you see inequalities for your gender (they do exist), what movement directly addresses it? feminism.

Okay, now you are looking into feminism, is it fair? well it claims to be fair and for equality of all genders / races / etc.

Upon this information, you join and start to focus efforts on problems affecting you.

And that last sentence is the key part, feminists don't see the troubles of men, just as white people have difficulty seeing the troubles of black people. So as a woman, you are part of a movement helping problems that directly face you, while claiming to be about equality. You aren't fighting for men, so what do you really know about feminism's goals for men?

And that is why people join feminism, they start off with seeing a problem, find the movement to help it, then see this sort of fluff that says, "btw, we are for EVERYONE!"
