Thats not true, the top dictionaries make changes to words annually. The word literally, for example, doesn't only mean 'literally' anymore because people kept using it sarcastically - so literally also means 'with emphasis'. It didnt mean this two years ago.
If misandrists change the definition of feminsm by dictionary standards, I will hang up my feminist cloak and find a new word to define by beliefs.
