Apparently this is an unpopular opinion among feminists. If feminism is about equality for everyone, it needs to address that. As an example, LGBTQ+ was extended many times to cover everyone in the community, and that’s the right thing to do. There isn’t just L and everyone repeats “Oh! Lesbians are for rights for everyone, no need to update that”

I don’t know what the new name should be, but it should cover gender equality for everyone.

    There’s nothing about my attitude that smug. I’m saying that if there was a clear accounting of the total amount of damage is done by men to women, we should pay that debt off.

    Like, please assume that I am collaborating in the conversation and that I’m looking to build something positive and not that I’m just trying to, like, one up or get up votes or anything else. I am contributing my viewpoint to the conversation. That’s it.

        Yeah, and you said I was smug about it, when there is no sense of smugness coming from me, which implies that you misread my intentions, so I clarified.
