Why I am so passionate about speaking out against feminism.

The question then is, which kind is more prevalent? I'd say this kind has more adherents but gets fewer headlines.

If that's the case, my second objection is that the not-crazy feminists so rarely call out the ones who are crazy. That's just what I'm doing here. If you aren't one of the crazy ones and you aren't going to defend the crazy ones, I was never talking about you.

I guess the question I'd want to as you is why it's more important to you that you defend the title 'feminism' than acknowledge the issues I've had with self identified feminists?

Again, watch the video I posted. She specifically states that she is pro-choice, pro GLBT, pro gender equality and pro so many of the other things feminism is supposed to stand for. But she isn't crazy about calling herself a feminist because she's seen the title used to defend way too much bad behavior. That's how I feel.
