Feminism has always been egalitarianism. There will always be people co-opting terms and movements for negative reasons. If men see feminism as something different that's on them to educate themselves. Women never achieved equity and now (in the US) we are backsliding as a country.

    And.... that's part of the problem,

    Women haven't achieved equity, this is true, and we ARE backsliding as a country.

    But at the same time it's saying "Could people be co-opting Feminism for Misandrist and Transphobic purposes? No, it's the men who are to blame!" that pushed young men to the Right to begin with. It's time to take some responsibility, and say "Not my circus, not my monkeys"
