  There was a time where I read a news story that pissed me right off. A girl accused a boy of raping her, turns out she was lying and was charged. Feminists groups cried foul and all that bs. You can say I dislike feminism if it involves ignoring all the bad things women do or try to get away with. Not saying I don't want woman to have equal rights, I'd be a hypocrite if I said I didn't. I just hate Feminazis with a passion.

  Quote from Lilith;748504:

  Every girl is a feminist if they want to have equal rights for themselves. People fail to differentiate between feminists and the extreme feminist. I've noticed most of the time when people talk about feminists they're referring to the extremists. Quite honestly it pisses me off when people are too stupid to realize the difference between the two.

  
  Extreme feminism =|= female chauvinism.
  
  And yes, female chauvinism is as disgusting as every other kind of chauvinism.

  I can actually see feminism being good in other countries like aran & allot of the middle eastern countries. But it pisses me of when i read stories about feminist people complaining about the policies in the USA :/

  Well, being brash and extreme while you're still heavily repressed is normal. It's moreso women in places like America and Europe still being feminist b*tches despite the fact women are finally very close to equal terms that is annoying.

  I honestly really wish that I could see things there way for once but no matter who's shoe i put myself in my brain and my commonsense blocks me from seeing anything :/

  I think I'd have to quote the Te of Piglet when addressing this issue: "Feminists are destroying what few gentlemen are left in the world." Whenever I open a door for a girl and they never say "Thank you," it always rubs me the wrong way. Same with extreme feminists, they're just out there to bash men and obtain sexual dominance. That being said, oppression of women is still out there and you're an idiot if you refuse to acknowledge this. It's tricky because each "side" has friends and enemies and often the battle is waged by those who aren't at the warfront. Like Osay said, treat everyone equal and that's a much better remedy to the issue of gender discrimination than pointing fingers. We're all human and it's a travesty that some people are blind to this.

  Exactly, i always try to treat everyone equally. I cant go around acting like im blind with my eyes close, but it works for the most part because im very introverted and dont talk much anyway.
  
  However, if it was at all possible i would like the power to turn the entire world into an internet chatroom so i couldnt see peoples real faces and names and identities. Makes it so much easier to communicate.
  
  I always hold the door open for people if im at it first and someones close behind me or on the other side. I thought its something you should do, i mean its like 5 seconds of holding a door, and saves them the 10 or so it would take to open it again after you left.
  I am horrible with dates, so instead of going out with my gf we just have movie nights and go to family events and stuff. Much easier, cause then we know whos paying (and its not us!).
  Other than that, i try to treat everyone equally whenever i have the chance, naturally i get uncomfortable about people of other races and sexes and other people in general, but thats not surprising, considering im so freaking shy.
  
  Anyway, the internet is the future! No true racism, sexism or others exist on here. Oh it exists on a personal level sure, but nobody except the extreme sexiest ever show it. Only people who hate the opposite sex immensely would go out of the way to obtain the information before talking to people they met online anonymously.
