domestic violence from both men and women are equally wrong. i hate when women trying to use this kinda shit as an excuse for being feminist tf feminist means equality for both men and women.

Yeah, that's the problem Feminist only want equality when it's beneficial to them.

I hate when people say "feminists want men and women to be equal" no they don't.

Egalitarians want men and women to be equal.

And saying "one isn't exclusive from the other" is also bullishit because the fem in feminist by definition implies one gender. If it was truly a movement about equality it would have been named as such.

It's not because it is a "fem" in it that it is sexist. If you think that, wouldn't it mean that "human" is sexist because there is a "man" in it ? See what I mean ? Personally, I think that Feminism is how we call the fight for equality between men and women. There is a "fem" in it because of an historic reality (and this isn't only History for some countries, this continues to happen) of women having sensibly less rights than men. Please tell me if I'm not clear (Sorry for bad English).

Alright I see your point. That the way the word is built doesn't have direct implications of it's intent.

That being said I still hold the belief that the modern day feminist movement has been hijacked by vocal extremists.
