Lol “feminism is a political view”. Only if you actually are a sexist. It is defined as, “the advocacy of women's rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes.” I don’t really care for anecdotal stories you have or similar such drivel. But that is what feminism is by it’s very definition. Do you not believe women should possess equal rights? That’s all it is. Other things are layers of garbage added by sexists by the left and right. I don’t see the equality of women as a political view though, more of a rational one 

That's a bad argument and you know it. This is just a neat little trick to make people say they are feminists. Are you for equal rights for men? Well, then I guess you are a Men's Rights Activist! Are you for a fair social system? Well, you must be a social democrat.

Putting yourself on the moral high ground actually shows that you will use any tactic besides rationality to win an argument... which, ironically, means the person you are arguing with now has the moral high ground. You are not a better person than me because of your political views. Your views and mine are equally valuable - or don't you believe in equality and democracy? (See, it's a very shallow way to argue.)
