Whenever someone has a take on "feminism" I kind of dismiss them and am skeptical they know what they're referring to, because IMO there are 2 completely different groups: "common-sense" feminists and radical feminists.
Radical feminism consists man-haters, and that's not my bias, many of these people will openly proclaim they hate all men and believe all men deserve to suffer for their horrible crime of existing. These are femcels, people who believe they deserve the world without contributing anything themselves, like incels but of the opposite gender.
Common-sense feminism holds the types of beliefs I imagine "good" men would hold. It promotes gender equality, except in the cases where biology makes different treatment justified (e.g. some women have to take it easy a few days every month). And encourages women to pursue whatever they want, whether that means dancing or engineering, and express themselves however, whether that means camming or generally avoiding social interactions.
Needless to say, the first group absolutely deserves opposition, the second does not.
