No doubt. I'd describe myself as a feminist in many regards. I hire predominantly female teachers, have clauses in my contracts specifically about respect for gender and orientation(I'm almost for sure the only business in Korea that has such clauses), and I very much believe that we need more women in government.
But I've also been on the receiving end of feminism. As you can guess from the nature of this thread, there are plenty of feminists who are more than happy to undermine my humanity or to demean me because of what I am. "You're a fucking asshole and I'm sorry for your poor kids" is not an attitude that I'm likely to align myself with.
This is something that many feminists don't understand-- when self-degradation is a starting-point for acceptance into a world view, it's not going to be a very healthy community.
