And your perception about feminism is wrong; feminism is simply the belief that women should have equal status, rights, and privileges when compared to men. It's nothing more complicated than that.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feminism  (in the Anti-Feminism section)

"Writers such as Camille Paglia, Christina Hoff Sommers, Jean Bethke Elshtain, Elizabeth Fox-Genovese and Daphne Patai oppose some forms of feminism, though they identify as feminists. They argue, for example, that feminism often promotes misandry and the elevation of women's interests above men's, and criticize radical feminist positions as harmful to both men and women.[195] Daphne Patai and Noretta Koertge argue that the term "anti-feminist" is used to silence academic debate about feminism."[196]

It is not clear what point you are trying to make here

Just that the current views of Feminism in developed countries are far from being as simple and clear as when the movement was created, which has cast doubt on whether these are justified or not, even from some of those who support its original principle of gender "equality" and identify themselves as "feminists" (like the writers mentioned above). The movement already managed to achieve most, if not all, of their original goals in these countries, making some people wonder if the current situation isn't as good as it gets.

Just that.
