Sort of off topic but anyone else think women who support the idea of equal rights and opportunity should re brand themselves as "equalist" to include men and women in the cause? The extreme minority is unfortunately perceived as the general attitudes of the feminist movement just like animal rights acts is sometimes mocked at because of PETA and others extremist groups.

But that would mean they were actually looking for equal rights.  Of course, they already have equal rights in the US.  What feminist want now are superior rights. Otherwise they would be fighting for for other women in other countries and not making up cases of discrimination here.  You also have people like Anita Sarkeesian who are just using the feminist movement to make money.

Perhaps the vocal minority are but I think most women who value the feminist movement in the past during the civil rights era are working towards equal opportunity in the work place and college and fighting discrimination there like the glass ceiling and the small presence of women in engineering, computer science, and other technology related majors that yield higher salary. That's not mentioning other things like rape as well. 

Its just the vocal minority in feminists that take things too extreme make women's right look bad just like PETA makes animal rights look bad.
