I'm very clearly talking about radicals here, and you know, I don't understand the logic of "well there's also people who aren't radicals, so for the sake of political correctness let's never have discussions about radicals EVER". And I have that problem with Islam too, even some of the moderate Muslims seem to be so incredibly delusional that they think radical Islam should NEVER be discussed, as if it's not relevant and you'd have to be a goddamn idiot to think it isn't.

Anyway, I guess it was the title. *Changed*
A lot of your first post and then replies did imply that modern feminism was quite radical when in fact they're the vast minority. That's why it was a generalisation. I mean....

I have a lot of problems with feminism, or at least how a lot of feminists prevent themselves, and their idealization of what women should be like (which is to basically be men with vaginas, or so it seems these days at least) is just as oppressive and constricting as what they are rallying against. It's just hypocritical bullsh*t.
and plenty of other similar points you made, do you have anything at all to back it up?

Anyway, I'll give it a rest, this isn't going to go anywhere.
