And for what it's worth, I absolutely would describe myself as feminist.
View original postIf you cheat on your wife in front of her face, you're a lot less likely to be able to do so for such a long time, though.

View original postIt seems obvious that a feminist should be able to disrespect particular women while believing that in general, women are great. I mean, who hates women more than other women?
It's not even about the distinction between a particular woman and women in general - it's about one's views on feminism having little or nothing to do with one's sexual fidelity.
