Here is the definition of "feminism" from the most respected dictionary of English:
"The advocacy of women’s rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes."

This is exactly why Feminism is not Egalitarianism. Feminism is based on the premise that women are less equal than men, and thus, furthering the rights of women = equality.
Egalitarianism is based on equality and is gender neutral. It advocates both men and women rights, if Feminism was about equality, then why does the definition say ''women's rights'' and not both men and women?
...
What a load of crap.
Women do not have equal rights in the world. If you actually supported equality, you would be in favor of improving the situation for women.
Your claim of egalitarianism is as ridiculous as someone who says that he isn't racist but he hates blacks.
