Editing Feminist

A feminist is not the same thing as a [[lesbian]], although based on how lesbians get treated by the patriarchy, a lot of them get pissed off with it and decide to join up. Some [[gay]]s are feminists too.

==What is a feminist?==

Feminists are people who believe in the equality of men and women. Maybe you are a feminist too and just didn't know it. A lot of people are afraid to become feminists because they thing they will have to burn their [[brassiere]]s and run around in the woods and hate men and never have sex and go to [[women-only]] [[folk music festival]]s. However, those kinds of things mostly stopped happening in the [[second wave]], although I'm sure they're still out there if you go looking.

In fact, many feminists would be perfectly happy to have you keep your [[brassiere]], if maybe to help you find one that fits your body better and makes you more comfortable. There's nothing worse than a badly-fitting bra.

If you are being oppressed because you are a woman (or for that matter because you are a man), by your bra or otherwise, please consult the nearest feminist for help. She (or he) will help you smash the [[patriarchy]] and then the two of you can go out for tea. Or to a folk music festival if you really want to.
