Its equality activism with a focus on how it affects women. In much the same way that #blacklivesmatter is eqaulity activism with a focus on the black community.
None of it is intended to say "men don't matter" or "white lives don't matter" its just those subjects are the sections that currently need work.
Like all the recent victories for the lbgb community doesn't mean its done, it means its now time to focus more on the trans community to lift them up alongside the progress being made in other areas.
Of course there are utter fucking twods on all sides in all causes who ruin shit for everyone and act like its some zero sum game of caring.
We should all care about total equality but that doesn't mean we cant identify particular problem areas and strongly target those with tailored actions. Horses for courses.
To provide some context to this, how many people know the name Aiyana Stanley-Jones? How many people know the name JonBenet Ramsey? Guess what they have in common, and what sets them apart?

I wasn't familiar with that second name, it made for some grim morning reading.
OK. I can totally accept this if this is the definition of feminism. Thank you for the response!
