Some extreme 'feminists' have unfortunately ruined the terminology for the moderate majority.Also,As TS said in his excellent post above.If equality for both men and women is to ever truly be acheived then a new term which includes both sexes needs to be used instead.Sexism works both ways.The word 'feminist' implies that it only includes women which is a total contradiction to equality.Something along the lines of 'equalist' or 'gender equalist' would be less contradictary.
So no i am not a 'feminist' i am an equalist.
