As with Phoenix, I too am a feminist. However, I do feel like those of us who fight for what feminism fights for should choose a new name, not only because the name itself no longer portrays accurately what we fight for (gender equality) but because these nutjobs who highjacked the name are all people associate with feminists now. I agree that men have problems because of their gender but women still suffer more because they are women than men do. I used to hold the exact same opinion as zeddexx, but coming to university and learning about how things really are has changed my outlook.
So yeah, feminism is good, even though I usually hesitate to use the word to talk about myself.
