I'm no feminist myself but to be fair I reckon that today's take on feminism is not concerned with legal rights like it was up until the mid-20th century or so, along with the civil rights movement and all that. It's more of a philosophical "movement" (a very loosely coherent movement at that, hence the quotation marks) more keen on casting light on certain gender-related presumptions and social patterns rather than taking direct political action. It's not so much of an issue about wether women "should" be at home with the kids or pursue a career or whatever, but more about trying to explain why women and men in general are associated with certain phenomena and expectations in the eyes of the world.
