Fat chance though cause I have lived a pretty nice part of my life before the internet was available to peasants like us. Btw: what's your secret to avoid that, not even trying to sound smart? Good job then sofar...
That wasn't directed at you, maybe it was too complex to grasp for you. Going at dumbasses like you on the net is a 21st century version of whack-a-mole.
If you have an issue with someone not sporting a label even if they are for the same thing, that's only a you problem and says a lot about your personality
Even then, the actual feminists shouldn't care if people don't want to be feminists if they're for the equality we already have in the first world. Even then just saying that they're not part of your movement doesn't change anything other than you trying to separate yourself from the problem rather than get rid of it.
I think it depends. There are some women, like myself, that refuse to identify as feminists because the movement doesn't want to respect or represent some of our ideals. In addition to the bad rep they're getting.
How could any person, whatever gender, not support feminism? Simply by not knowing what it is or from profiting from the status quo. I know it's a site that has a lot of far fetched stuff on it, but just read this one article, then do and believe whatever you like. http://everydayfeminism.com/2016/12/anti-feminist-women/
Feminism is not about turning the tables, it's not about anyone loosing options, it's not about telling men or women what to do or what not to do. I'm a white cis man and the greatest thing that ever happened to me was to find this truly feminist woman I've been married to for so long now. She loves to do woman things and she totally respects my and anybody else's manhood. It's not men per se, but toxic masculinity that's hurting this society, still. It's a self supporting system that hardly anyone is really profiting from, except a very small minority. Does that sound familiar in any way?
Which is what feminism wants. It's what all influential, distinctive and sustained feminist activists have wanted, for centuries. The shrill caricatures don't represent feminism, but serve the agenda of certain people. Name them equalitists instead, and the same certain people will start labeling them as equalnazis.

I'll stick up for women but I'll also stick up for men which is why I'm not a feminist. I'm also aware that women in Western countries have more privileges than men so I would rather fight for their rights. I am for men and woman, not just woman. I am not a feminist and proud.
In related news. A dictionary fuckers! Have you ever even heard of one?!
