Yes. The theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes.

Yes, I am a feminist. A feminist is anyone who believes women are equal and deserve equality in all ways. I grew up in a family with strong women, I married one, and my daughter is one. In a lot of ways, they are stronger and better than I am.

yes. Political, economic and social equality for all sexes. I am wondering if the reason for it to take so long to furthur the sexes equilibrium was largely due to christianity. The teachings in the bible are pretty clear about man having the most responsibility in the relationship. Women played a submissive and dependent role to the man.

I am a feminist because I believe that woman should be treated equally in every way. It's that simple. It's doesn't mean anything to me other than women shouldn't be treated as inferior to men.

Equal all the way

A feminist is someone who rejects the general assumption in most of today's civilizations that women are lesser. Yes, I am a feminist.

I prefer the idea of a non-gender-specific humanist. We are all human and deserve the same rights regardless of ANY cultural or religious impositions.

Yes. I think women and men should have equal rights and be respected with equal value. All gender roles are culturally imposed with the one exception of child birth.

I am, but would like to see the term changed. I am all for totaly equality in everything,
But the term "feminism" allows people to make false claims about what it means.

Absolutely a feminist. Just like I am not a racist. I simply believe that all humans should be treated equally.

I believe in Equality, not necessarily Exact Sameness, but certainly Balance. Do I support Women? Absolutely! Do I want them to have the same opportunities as Men? You Bet! Do I Admire and Respect women? Yes! and Yes! If you mean Femenist in these terms then yes I am am a feminist.

On the otherhand, If you believe it is necessary to tear men down in order to lift women up or treat men as abusers and women as victims then NO, I am not a feminist.

I don't like calling myself an "ist" anything. It puts me in a box and sorry but I am a human being not an intellectual sterotype.

There are many definitions of feminism. You could probably split them into 3 main definitions

1 gender equality
2 empowerment of women
3 hatred of men

I am all for the first 2

A feminist believes in the total equality of women. By that definition, I have always been a feminist. Even more since I became the father of a most beautiful, able daughter.

I am for equality for all. Our society has not yet achieved that so I will fight for equality.

As far as I know, feminism simply means believing in equal rights for ALL people.
So, yeah, I'm a feminist.

Yes, too many people treat it like a dirty word. The belief that women and men are equal and deserve to be treated as such.

I liked the feminism where there were to be equal rights and more rights for both genders - things like equal pay for equal work, and men get paternity leave just like women get maternity leave - but I'm uncomfortable with the amount of misandry that is creeping into the movement. Not all feminists are like that, but enough are that I'm not so sure that I want to be associated with those. For example, while men do need to allow a woman to speak, that does not mean that men should not have a voice, too. Plus, there are tiny things that undermine men, like telling them that nurturing and compassion are them bringing out their feminine side - but that things like taking charge are part of being a woman. No one would suggest that a woman applying for a promotion at work was an example of her bringing out her masculine side, so why not admit that nurturing and compassion are part of being a man?

I'd rather embrace humanism than feminism.

Somewhat - believe should have amendment to constitution stating so.

A feminist believes in the total equality of women. By that definition, I have always been a feminist. Even more since I became the father of a most beautiful, able daughter.

I'm a non-conformist who under most circumstances does not or would not associate with labels. I defend liberty for all, for everyone to live their lives the way they desire and everyone treated equal. I do not need additional descriptions or titles attached to my name.

Strange to be asked, in a way, as I am not in that kind of circuit any more - I used to be a very headstrong feminist but moved from England to N.Ireland and lost most of my contacts with radicals. I'm not sure that much feminism exists here for me anyway - The polarisation is less male female than catholic / church of Ireland, Inside I am feisty; 'outside' nowhere to go with it !

Yes. I beleive in equality of opportunity in as many areas as is reasonably possible.
