Outspoken activists who I know have all defined feminism in that way: 'a belief that sexual/gender equality is served by focussing on issues which affect women'. That doesn't separate feminists from egalitarian conversations, it simply means that they're coming at the issues from a specific perspective.
IMO, DeistPaladin hit the nail on the head: Tf00t's using sweeping generalisations and that puts him in the wrong, even when he's getting things right. I've posted my opinion on his channel, to voice my objections, so he needs to change his overall approach for me to give his views anything more than passing attention.
