Feminism has a "no true scotsman" problem. Pop feminism can very much be "whatever promotes female social status," and even within academic feminism there's squabbles between schools of feminism.
Fair point. It is true that there are some schools of feminist thought that are more outright hostile to men’s interests, but they don’t have much prominence in recent times. Maybe it’s a bias from the circles I am involved in, but my perception is that the dominant forms recently are highly inclusive and egalitarian.
