Hello, feminists. Over the years I have heard a lot of talk about what feminism is not. For example, feminism is not;

  • misandry,
  • a front for lesbians to turn straight women gay,
  • lesbians with penis envy,
  • or another way to rebel against your father.

So my question is: What the fuck is feminism? Please provide simple, easy to understand answers that use plain language, because neologisms and SJW buzzwords give me a headache and I tune out instantly. The parlance of feminists, LGBTQ activists, and related movements do not speak to my perspective, or give me a conversational frame of reference. I don't want to consult Wiktionary or Urban Dictionary every five words per paragraph.

Thank you.
