>no one wants to be associated with feminism anymore

Oh gosh, you're commenting on HN, you obviously should have some data to back your opinions with? Right?

There's been plenty of butthurt about it:

  • Let me see...

    Huffington Post: "Few Identify As Feminists, But Most Believe In Equality Of Sexes" Telegraph: "Just one in seven women describes themselves as 'feminist'" Jezebel: Quotes from privileged, mostly white women, talking about how they don't need feminism. (btw, Beyonce and Lady Gaga had radicalized since this article)

    Not sure how the posted links are to prove that "no one wants to be associated with feminism anymore". But it's ok, take your time, I'm still very interested.

      Fact remains: feminism is a dying movement. For good reason, and good riddance.

      >Quotes from privileged, mostly white women

      Does exceeding a certain number of privilege points negate the existence of your vagina? Aren't all women supposed to be helpless victims of The Patriarchy (TM)?
