I think the whole idea that radical feminism is some how bad is pretty silly. Granted there are feminists whose ideas I don't agree with, but groups like "Pussy Riot" and the "Guerrilla Girls" ( "Radical feminism" seems to now be a coded way of saying "I don't like how these women are presenting their message, so their message is wrong" I know that people try to defend feminism by separating the "radical feminists" from the "everyday feminists" but I would not be so quick to do so.There are indeed radical feminists, but they're a very tiny fringe, generally associated with trans-phobia and looked down upon by the rest of the movement.
) could easily be seen as "radical" and I have no problems with their messages whatsoever.
If you would like me to start attributing the mistreatment I've personally witnessed both to myself and others' at the hands of certain feminists to the movement as a whole, I can do that. That's the issue you face when you start trying to tell someone they shouldn't separate out feminism into pieces based upon both the actions and the specific beliefs of certain sects of the feminist movement. What this distinction allows me to do is continue agreeing with the premise of feminism (equality) while not agreeing with the way some feminists treat men. You don't get to have your cake and eat it too.
