> Feminism is the theory of equality of the sexes, or activity in support of women's rights.

That's certainly what it started out to be, but it isn't anymore. My favorite "feminism" quote, from I don't remember who: "I supported feminism, back when it meant equal rights."

Feminism RARELY means that anymore but it's often claimed to mean that in an effort to appeal to potential supporters.
