Helen Pluckrose wrote a pretty good piece on this, it's quite lengthy, however, this is a good response as to why many no longer feel they can identify as feminist:

I'm personally egalitarian, equality across the board.

Good piece.

One of the reasons she gave that caught my eye...

"I agree with Ayaan Hirsi Ali that western feminism needs to stop focusing on 'trivial bullshit.' I don't have a huge amount of sympathy for women who feel traumatised and excluded by scientists' shirts or video games."

Yeah, I think it's rather difficult for someone who's suffered FGM, to give one iota of a shit about a shirt, or video games.
