There was also that online thing recently, dunno if you saw it, girls holding up banners saying "I don't need feminism because...". Some were opinions that I respected but some were just insanely ignorant. I mean, it's great that they feel their life hasn't been affected by gender inequality, but they must be so close-minded not to understand that women across the world suffer at the hands of gender inequality.

Yeah. I think feminism needs a new name tbh, most misassociate it as female supremacy. Using 'Equal-genderism' as a term instead would probably clear a lot of it up.
