That's a useful distinction. It seems to me that women have been successful in shaping societal evolution with many benefits for us all. No wonder many women are much happier with the culture in general. Those items, however, are not what I primarily associate with feminism. My view of feminism should be broadened, no doubt. Being the open-minded male that I am, I was quite sure all of those "good and useful aspects" developed quite in friendly cooperation with the male race. Indeed, males probably suggested them and made sure all the transition went well! Be that as it may, I won't insist on that sequence of developments.

And please don't equate "radical" with man-hating, though leftist, in this instance, might apply. I can think of few feminists I've known that were radical conservatives.

"I don't know what Republicans stand for or are interested in, but I'm pretty sure I don't like them".

Does that statement make any sense? They only thing I see people here agreeing on is that they don't what "radical feminism" is, but there is agreement to not liking it.

Interesting. <g>
