Your poll is a false trichotomy.

Yes, because women should choose their social role rather than have one forced on them. Hence equal rights. Hence feminism.

Your reply is a straw man against me is it not? I clearly also want equal rights for all, however from what I've read of feminists, they don't feel that way. For example, custody of children they will likely always side with the mother.

And you conflate equal rights with feminism like someone else did. Egalitarianism is a must better definition that doesn't single out other genders other than women. I don't see Feminists fighting for trans or other genders equality either.

If you are not a feminist, you either don't believe women are people, or you don't believe all people should be treated equally. The former is sexist, the latter is... Err... Mean?

Under their strict definition, but I don't consider myself one. I consider myself an Egalitarian, which means equal rights for all genders without bias towards one or the other, which feminism obviously has from just what I've read so far.
If the hypothetical idea of an afterlife means more to you than the objectively true reality we all share, then you deserve no respect.
