As Smithy said, your level of immersion within feminist movements decides on how politicised you become. If you don't want to get into gender based arguments and discussions, then that's an entirely separate thing to being a feminist. Though it may help the cause of feminism, being a feminist doesn't carry with it a responsibility to engage in its discourse.
