First off: I feel I should apologise for coming out swinging. I tend to go on the defensive when it comes to my ideals, particluarly the ideas that tend to be... provokative. So I appreciate you not seeming to take anything I said personally.

I understand these issue, like all issues people care about, come down to personal experience If you've not experienced some of the discussions where... well the last argument I had was *deleted that whole paragraph. I dont have the enrgy to argue it again* horrible. and I did not find myself with nearly as many allies as I did detractors and the opinions expressed were simply... monsterous, from so-called enlightened people claiming to support the ideals of feminism... but I digress, My point is if you've not experienced it, there's no reason for you to feel the same way as me.

My main point about the ideal of gender equality 'Dieing' is more that the idea SHOULD be wider spread than the label. Insisting eveyone who believes in gender equality be forced under the single banner of 'Feminist' with all the various connotations people bring to it, just seems counter productive. If there is a 'catch all' label I'd be willing have applied to me, it would be the 'Not an Arsehole' movement. much less strict rules, and label lawyering, and 'You're not a real feminist if you believe x' bullshit. 1 simple rule 'Don't be a prick' but I suppose even that would get bogged down with pricks pretty quickly.
