I don't think you're necessarily describing "feminism" but that being said, there's nothing wrong with wanting the things you listed!
I love it when a guy does polite things for me, too, and I rather like the idea of being "taken care of" financially. That doesn't really have much to do with feminism, as an overall ideal is quite different from personal preference.
The only thing I would point out is that what works for you doesn't work for everybody. We're all different, and we all have different needs. To some women, having a career IS the most important thing to them! Some men have similar needs to women, and some women have similar needs to men. There's not much point in being "against" those who are different from you. By that same token, don't sweat it when people are against you for being different! You know what you want, go for it :) You won't change someone else and they can't change you.
True, we are all different, but why are there so many more feminist women now, than there are women like me? Could it be that women feel pressured to be as career-oriented and successful as men, simply because that is what movies, and feminist articles depict? Women were made weaker, more gentle and mild, and more caring for a reason. I don't believe that there are this many hard-headed, masculine women in the world. It's all the pressure to conform...
Is it normal for a girl to be an antifeminist?
