equality, not feminism: Please look up the definition of "feminism." The definitions that I found are as follows:
1. [n] the movement aimed at equal rights for women
2. [n] a doctrine that advocates equal rights for women
Therefore, "feminism" is not a reactionary gender prejudice (though it may very well be practiced as such by some); it is a concise term to describe "equality for women."
N.D.B.:"One doesn't have to read any further than this "study" to see that women are just as aggressive, and full of shit as men are."
Why would someone assume that aggression *isn't* a female quality (as if implied in this comment)? I would also assert that nuturing behavior isn't the sole domain of women; men have a unique capacity for nuturing families and their offspring and there is biological evidence for this phenomenon. (Look up more information about the hormone Vasopressin and its influence on behavior.)
