In your example it would mean that the accusations are handled in exactly the same way, regardless of the sex/race/religion/societal status of either party.
I don't exactly know how to define feminism. They say equality but by what standard? Do they mean equality in that they are treated like men? Or are they striving for their own standard of equality?

Of course.

I think feminism is inherently flawed, the name itself gives to gender bias. I think the whole equality movement is good but we are going about it the wrong way. We can't have feminism and whatever the mens rights movement is called, that just breeds conflict and it will never get resolved. what we need is one unifying banner and organisation, something like 'equalists' or 'egalitarians'

I think its a bit of both. I think she turned to such radical views of feminism because she was unstable. I blame her reaction on her mental condition and her radical feminism for preventing her from seeing the double standards. The ironic thing is, all feminists want is equality with men and I treated Jane pretty much as I would treat any guy, and yet she apparently she didn't like it.
