Do you understand what equal means? Being the same. Not being better or worse, but the same. You are exactly right - any woman who feels the need to assert a greater degree of power than a man to prove that she is "equal" is misunderstanding the meaning of feminism. But so are you.
A feminist is, by definition, someone who supports the "social, political, and economical equality of the sexes". If they want women to have more rights than men, then they aren't feminists.
Ugh I'm SO sick of people generalising about 'Europe' as though its one place. It's a CONTINENT made up of 50 different individual countries. Russia and Spain couldn't be more different in culture and values, for example, and they're both European countries.
This is a really good idea. I think the word 'feminism' needs to be re-branded - it has far too many negative connotations. Most girls probably agree with most of less-extreme beliefs of feminism, but are too afraid to say it. Feminism needs to be associated with strong, intelligent, appealing women who love men but, at the same time, believe they should be treated equally to them.
No, not at all. It's saying that you should be the kind of person you'd want your own child to turn into. For instance if you'd want your child to be happily married or have a successful career, you should aim for that for yourself.
doesn't a week begin on Monday anyway? or has my whole life been a lie..

No feminists want women to have EQUAL rights, not more rights than men. It's perfectly acceptable for men to want that too.
Also most comedy films feature this sterotype (forgetting sarah marshall, knocked up, the dilemma, the break-up, i could go on and on...)
isn't it more needy than cocky? like desperate that someone will buy the product
