Feminism is egalitarian, this is something completely accepted in the academic world. It just is. You cant have the audacity to just say academia has no integrity and what people have been writing for decades just isnt true because it doesn't suit your narrative. You can’t just say it isn’t so without actually looking at the consequential logical arguments of feminism or deconstructing them and pointing out their fallacies. Where is your evidence? Where are your points that prove the inconsistency in logic?

​

The best point I have to offer you is that the term feminism was first used before the word egalitarianism so why don’t you egalitarians use feminism?

​

I am willing to put this aside as contemporary feminist literature maintains that it would fall under the umbrella of egalitarianism however with a specific focus on equality for sex. I genuinely cannot think of a single text that claims otherwise so how about you give me reputable feminist texts that says it hates egalitarianism and only cares about women. Just as you can’t claim to be truly egalitarian if you don’t want to fight for equality between different races and classes, you cant claim to be egalitarian if you don’t want to fight for different sexes. So as a feminist I guess I am just more egalitarian than you. How does it feel admitting you believe sex should have an impact on whether they’re considered equal? Unless of course you don’t think it should matter in which case you should be a feminist. Anyhow, feminism is not the only movement under egalitarianism as libertarianism, socialism and social anarchism etc are also apart of the social focuses of egalitarianism with their own specific interests such as class or with their own method to achieving equality such as limited gov intervention. Many movements develop different groups fighting under the umbrella term so to focus on specific issues that the larger term is brushing over or because people develop different ways to achieve that larger term.

​

Moreover, the term egalitarianism has a lot of debate as to what it means and if It should assume equality or if is about a search of equality. There is also debate about the types of equality it expects to achieve so I would rather stick with a term that is very clear and concise. Here is a reputable link if you want to look more into it https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/egalitarianism/

​

Besides when Karl Marx first used the term ‘egalitarianism’ did people unite to ensure than women were included in measures for equality? No! that is why we needed feminist to fight together to ensure that at least some egalitarians were fighting for equality on the basis of sex and I am glad they did because decades upon decades later there is equal legality. Think of unions and how theyre apart of the wider union movement but specific unions focus on specific careers to ensure that their people were getting the resources and attention they needed. They are all still unionist !

​

Also you’re so clever picking up that feminism has ‘fem’ in it. You little semantic genius, you. The word ‘female’ also has ‘male’ in it and the word ‘unresolved’ has ‘resolved’ in it wow oh wow my mind is being blown. Yes, feminism has ‘fem’ in it because for a long time most of the sexism pertained to inequality experienced by women. It began with a focus on women suffrage and then other legal rights that women just did not have so the foundation of that word makes sense. Regardless, ‘fem’ in a word doesn’t change the core of what we believe in. The word neckbeard doesn’t mean you have to have a neckbeard you just have to be involved in that culture. termology means very little I mean why dont you use the word humanist or man of equity or any other synonym or do you but only they are ok and not fEMIniSm?

​

So as you can tell it is in fact about equality of the sexes. That is the point and the core paradigm that all the texts I have studied at uni and beyond maintain. Sorry this goes against everything you were told about us but you were just told lies. Maybe actually read contemporary feminist texts, you might have fun. You can’t label yourself a feminist if you don’t believe in that core equality paradigm even if you may claim to. You can hate other groups that claim to be feminist but don’t actualise this paradigm or claim to subcultures but the movement itself doesn’t represent the small subsection of feminism or misogynist pretending to be feminist that you have been exposed to and for some reason has made you very aggressive. Good thing for you I’m not afraid to be aggressive here because I can tell nothing is going to pass your thick skull as you seem pretty set on these ideals. I understand when people have someone disagree with deep held beliefs (in this case that feminism just has to be evil and just has to involve hating men) then when you’re exposed to evidence on the contrary you’ll feel as if your identity is being attacked and will only settle deeper in to your cave.

Is everything I have read from actual recognised and degree bearing feminist a lie because some dumb ass from a minuscule place on the internet is convinced they know better than academics about what authority figures are trying to say??? How come other feminist didn’t let me know about our secret agenda to take over the world by killing one man at a time :0 damn I feel so left out :/ here I thought I had actually studied feminism as an egalitarian movement but this internet man must know better than me since he has other hivemind assholes to back him up !

​

It is perfectly normal for ideologies to develop submovements with focuses on specific groups/issues and that is not limited to just egalitarianism and feminism. To put this into perspective into something I am sure you can understand even the genre of rock has different subcultures from grunge to hair rock. It’s a perfectly sensical sociological and political science expectation that manifests everywhere. I don’t understand what’s so hard to understand. So you could listen to fact or you could keep on insisting on this dumb narrative with your dumb conspiracies because of your silly feelings. Instead of insisting on made up shit to sell a completely invalid point actually read the literature and use some critical thought. Just because Lauren Southern told you it’s true doesn’t make it fact unfortunately.

​

Notice how I have a full coherent argument and all you have to offer is a conspiracy and the fact that your genius brain realised 'fem' was in the word feminist as if that means anything about the logic of the movement.
