Yes.
Feminist: One who supports the cause of feminism.
Feminism: The belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.
Pretty simple to support, huh? Man or woman. I think the only reason a person who believes in equality of the sexes would NOT call herself/himself a feminist is because of people who have distorted the perception of the word as a dirty and shameful label the past few decades. But if you reject the word based on how THEY have shaped the perception of it, in an insidious way, you’re letting them define you.
Go back to the REAL definition of the word, not THEIR distorted definition, and see if it is something you believe in. And can be proud to call yourself. Man OR woman. And go from there.
Because, if you break it down, if you are NOT a feminist, then you do NOT believe in equal rights for men and women. Is that what you believe? Or is it that you’re rejecting what the label has been distorted into?
It used to be that “geek” was a dirty word, too. A shameful label. Not anymore, thank goodness.
“Feminist” needs a transformation like that too. It’s overdue.

Island Kitten Befriends Animal Photographer
Animal photographer Mitsuaki Iwago was visited by a little ginger kitten when he was filming on the island of Okinawa. This little island dweller like many others are taken care of by the locals. Many cat lovers and photographers come to this island to visit their furry kitty friends.
This ginger kitten went up to the photographer and climbed on his head in the midst of the filming. Mitsuaki was happy to have a little helper on his shoulder, inspiring him as he went on with his creative production.
By the end of the day, the little island kitty fell asleep in his lap. It’s clear that he had made the photographer his new friend.

[7:12:21 PM] Paragon Trixie: Whatever, just ignoring it———————————————————————-
Trixie’s ignoring it, but I’m not going to. I need to set the record straight.
Whoever is doing this needs to damn well cut it out.
TJ sure as hell isn’t the type of person to scam anyone.
But then, accusing him on anon just makes whoever made the claim a coward…
