>Further, what's wrong with feminism? In simplistic terms on HN and in society in general, there are approximately two working definitions of feminism: 1. Women and men are different [1], but are equal in person-hood and should be treated the same. 2. Women and men are different [1], but are equal in person-hood and should be treated the same, but in areas where women have a record of being discriminated against they should be thoughtfully promoted (aka. what opponents call "reverse discrimination") [1]: Statistically (thus exceptions) and biologically, but usually in ways that don't matter to the situation at hand. Without taking sides, you can see that 2 upsets a lot of people. For example a female only code-a-thon, is "OK" but a male code-a-thon would outrageous. Lack of 2 upsets other people as they perceive it takes more than passive fairness of overcome a social biases. Personally, I agree with both to a limited extent and attempt to balance them based on the circumstance.
