Agreed. There's also this reflexive dislike of the label "feminist," for a lot of people, based largely on the image of the man hating radical feminist, and the perceived loss of credibility one would get hit with if they used the label. I guess that's fine, since a lot of people who don't identify as feminist still do feminist work, in a sense; if the term is a shell that we need to shed, then so be it. All those fine people working for actual equality are doing the work of feminism anyway, at least the way I see it.
