There also is a fair amount of (very understandable) misandry mixed in with feminism. Not that all feminists are misandrists but all misandrists are feminists and this is amplified in media.
Dude. We’re talking about a person who hates men and boys but also thinks women should have fewer rights and opportunities than them. What would that even look like?
: belief in and advocacy of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes expressed especially through organized activity on behalf of women’s rights and interests.
Your ignorance on the subject doesn’t grant you the ability to redefine what feminism is.
“Sexes” not genders this movement predates any discourse on trans rights and related. This movement has always been about women hence the name. Then “organized activity on behalf of women’s rights and interests”. If you think women should be able to vote, own property, have bank accounts, have bodily autonomy, etc. You are for women’s rights and interests, and it is possible to hate men at the same time. In the same way that a black person can hate white people and still fight for racial equality. It’s not ideal but it is possible. You are both redefining the word and gatekeeping entry to the movement.
I’m a man and I do not care if a feminist feels some kinda way about men. They have really good reasons to. Maybe they’ll feel better if and when those reasons go away. Hopefully I can earn their trust by being an ally to them. You don’t get to kick them out of the movement.

Misandrists are fake feminists
Real feminists are not misandrists
All misandrists are feminists? That’s simply not true.
Yes? I have never met someone who hates men that also thinks women deserve fewer rights than them.
Your personal experiences are not universal truths.

Feminism is about equality for all genders at its root. Misandrists are not feminists.
Damn women can’t even have their own movement? Its giving “all lives matter.”
