Feminism is.....

This is not my work. I found it in a blog I follow and found it quite fascinating. It has all my beliefs and values put together

Feminists:
put women first in as many ways as they can all the time
oppose the oppression of women in all its forms
refuse to participate in patriarchy as much as possible
consider, evaluate, and make the choices that are available to them according to a knowledge that those choices make a difference in the lives of women everywhere
take actions that embody their political beliefs as often as they can
recognize ways in which they collude with patriarchy and actively work to change in those areas
Feminists oppose (among other things):
pornography
prostitution
rape
weight-loss diets and fatphobia
heterosexism
lesbophobia
male violence
violence against women and children
sado-masochism
child sexual abuse
pedophilia
compulsory heterosexuality
heteronormativity
bestiality
coercion
oppression
racism
ableism
ageism
anti-Semitism
slavery
Feminists support:
accountability
responsibility
safety
friendship
respect
community
consensus
connection
love
consensual, non-violent, non-commercial sex
creativity
clear, honest communication
working through differences
ethics
knowing what feminism is and is not
