This is actually exactly what I was getting at in my comment, and you've summed up a lot of the problem I have with the whole "Feminism is not about choice!" issue. Feminism is not just about choice, but both the ability to make your own choices and the rights that ensure that women are not limited in their options when making said choices are important parts of the fight for equality.

Some of the people doing said criticism, unlike yourself, either a) take their argument to the extreme and essentially strip women of all agency by assuming that women (and people in general) can't put some level of thought into the choices they make without someone else telling them to do so and b) forget to go beyond their own rhetoric and actually target the issues in society that might limit the options that a woman has when making said choices. It's okay to say that feminism is not just about choice, but it doesn't give people license to be a jerk to other women who make decisions that don't fall in line with their own personal morals. Or to imply that women are incapable of making sound decisions without someone stepping in to point out how and why their choices are wrong. If I don't need a man to step in and guide my choices in the "right" direction, I don't need another woman to do so, either, no matter how good the intentions behind that might be.

(I'm preaching to the choir here, but it just really gets my goat when people use feminism (or social justice on a larger scale) as an excuse to be a jerk to others. Apparently I needed to vent...)
