No need to go further into your reasoning if you don't want to but this has always a been curious issue to me and came up today with one of my colleagues. She is a feminist by how she described her beliefs but doesn't actually adopt the term.

Didn’t used to be.

Am a definite yes now!

More as I get older too, and realise it’s still shit for women.

Can a feminist not care about the Me Too movement & find it slightly hysterical and also slightly irritating? That's one of my answers.

HoneywithLemon · 09/02/2018 17:43

Yes
