If I say I am not a feminist, does that automatically make me an anti feminist?

I wouldn't think that would be any more true than not being a theist would make you an anti-theist.

I hate how its corrupted gaming journalism for the worse.
There really is not journalism or even media/news ethics.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.

I can't say that I am an expert when it comes to feminism.
But I have gotten the impression more than once, that when someone expresses they are not a feminist, it makes them anti feminist.
I got this from reading articles, watching youtube video's and pins I came across on Pinterest.

I have gotten the impression that criticizing feminism, because you might not agree with all the ideas, or the way the ideas are expressed, makes someone automatically anti feminist. (In the eyes of a feminist)

So, criticizing the way some feminist do their thing does not make someone anti feminist. It does not mean someone is against equal rights for woman and men.
