Is it normal i'm not a feminist?

I like the fact that feminism has gained many rights for women, but I see many flaws in today's feminism. I think it's going to far. I don't like how women have almost become hateful towards men when both men and women need each other.

I also like dominant men, and I want men to be the leaders. When I finally start a relationship, I want a strong man who is dominant and willing to take control (not in an abusive way, but with respect). Is this normal?

    Sounds pretty normal to me, though I think a man can be strong and decisive without being dominant and controlling. A relationship to me is a partnership, so dominant isn't a word I'd use readily.

    It's normal enough to not identify as a feminist, but I do think your oversimplifying areas of it.

    Also, wanting a "dominant" male doesn't make you any less of a feminist, IMO. I've said it before here, and I'll say it again: the point of feminism was to give women choices, whatever those choices may be, and that includes the freedom to be attracted to traditional gender roles.

    I feel the same way. I like my men manly, in charge and all that shit. I don't think my personal preferences and what I'm attracted to means shit all in terms of my opinions on women's rights, and in fact, I think it's my right to like whatever I want, relationship wise (now, ain't that feminist-y).

      I like how you've put that.
      OP, feminism shouldn't be about hatred and hopefully it is a minority which paints a bad picture of them.

    I look forward to the day where there is no gender and we're all robots.

    I used to be one, but not anymore. My eyes have been opened. The original feminist movement was a proud cause with a good message and good intentions. 2nd wave was the beginning of the end. It lead the way to what we have now, which is 3rd wave.

    Radical feminism isn't the only form of feminism. Please educate yourself.
