As soon as feminism is mentioned, in come the males, telling us what feminism is. Feminism isn't men posting on the subject, quite dismissively. That may be news to some men.

I get the feeling if a woman had won and spent all series telling the men to shut up and listen rather than speak you'd be reeling and whining that feminism isn't misandry, so I'm not entirely sure what it is exactly you want.

Shaun, I don't reel and whine. No need for that.

I am a feminist and I have a little fight against inequality and discrimination most day of my life. I don't need someone with a penis to tell me what that means.

The whole of CBB was really good, they came to some kind of respectful peace between then, while still knowing that they aren't on the same page. I loved Courtney, even though I didn't always agree, I loved Ann, even though I didn't always agree.

But the crap I've seen on this forum beggars belief, and I am tired of men on here mansplaining to females what feminism is and holding up a drag queen and telling us, look! A feminist!

I think you can. But suddenly you have to have a penis to be an expert? I can be passionate about all kinds of rights without them applying to me. I'm not so keen to tell others how they should think and feel. And it's getting a little bit like that...

Please, go ahead and tell me what feminism is then, because according to you the dictionary definition isn’t quite correct
