Re: MRA in my trope cataloguing website? More likely than you'd think!

Eh, I dunno. In my opinion, being an extreme feminist is still far better than being not extreme enough (except in instances where they actually damage the credibility of the feminist movement). It's easier to mellow out a little than to whip up strength out of nowhere, and unlike some movements, there isn't really much of a downside to feminism.

But the overreactions and obsessions some people have when they get all worked up get a little...insular sometimes? Internally, they usually make sense, but externally, they sometimes say things that make me facepalm at the idea of them being overheard by people who aren't well-versed in feminist theory and terminology.

I dare you to go look up RadFems/TERF's and then come back and say that with a straight face.

I think the use of the word "extreme" would mean that they are already at a damaging level. Personally, I'd go with a moderate over an extremist anyday. Moderates are more likely to engage in dialogue, whereas extremists are just going to have a hard line.

Oh yeah IA, but I'd also pick someone who's a bit extremist over someone with very weak views, which is quite different from moderate.
