Why so many "anti-feminists" in the atheist community?

[bennyboy]

Atheists can comfortably say they lack all of the kinds of "-ism."

Atheism says differently. Also atheists can be of any breed and color and subscribe to a whole set of isms. Their only uniting feature is the absence of belief.

I don't see how what you're saying is in contrast to what I'm saying. Atheists do not have active beliefs in God. Nor do they adhere to doctrines about God. Nor do they support movements fighting to promote beliefs or doctrines in God.

No, it's not like that.

"Feminism" requires an "-ism" about females. That's it. And an "-ism" can be a belief, a doctrine, or a movement. ANY OF THOSE THREE satisfies the requirement for terming someone a feminist.

Atheists can comfortably say they lack all of the kinds of "-ism." They lack a belief in God, a doctrine about God, and participation in any movement in support of God.

You still haven't addressed a more commonly accepted definition of feminism among the community than believing and supporting in gender equality.

As an atheist I can hold any ism I want, I support capitalism, I like nihilism and existentialist philosophies, I like gnosticism, and so on... It's not about not supporting an ism, but rather which ones. Feminism requires support for gender equality for everyone, with specific address of women's (but also other groups) issues just like LGBT addresses specifically gay people's issues, there's nothing wrong with that and I support movements like those regardless of their name. I think this conversation is becoming uninteresting since we're basically arguing about definition but we've already reached the conclusion that feminazis don't account for accurate representation of all feminists in the world and probably you will not change your mind even if I direct you to reddit's section of feminism or other like Everydayfeminism that is a well known blog and magazine that debates, problematizes and helps with issues about women, men, other races, sexual orientations, etc.

Your comment ended up under mine. Look up a couple posts and you'll have my response, as well as an answer to the OP.
