SJW's outside san francisco is pretty much only online.
Nah. Politicized feminism may be.
At a base level, it's recognizing that there are issues for both men and women, and to be productive, they focus on a specific side of the spectrum.
Refer to my former point about heart surgeons not doing dentistry.
Having an overall doctor to treat a symptom is really nice.
Until you realize you're dealing with the wrong doctor.
That a fuck ton of people abuse the label is a different story, and the lack of distinction between 1st, 2nd and 3rd wave etc. is a whole different story.
There is no non-politicized feminism.
I don't even understand what this has to do with feminism, not believing in feminism or being anti-feminist.At a base level, it's recognizing that there are issues for both men and women, and to be productive, they focus on a specific side of the spectrum.

I'm not young anymore. There are stuff that pisses me off though.

r.i.p. alleria. 1997-2017. blizzard ruined alleria forever. blizz assassinated alleria's character and appearance.
i will never forgive you for this blizzard.
I believe in equality of the sexes, which means both good and bad. ie:
- women should get paid as much as men, but they also need to perform as much as them to get paid the same. Which means, no special treatment for them. If they want maternity leave, then men should have an equal amount of paternity leave.
- Women should be able to do "men work", but only if they can perform equally. If they can't pick up a 70 lb cement bucket, then they shouldn't be out in the construction yard or should indeed be getting paid less for doing the work less.
- If they want the government to pay for their birth control then government should pay for my condoms (to make water balloons with since I don't have sex).
- They should also be able to be drafted to the military.
- Men should get prison sentences for rape and women should as well for false rape charges.
- Physical violence and home abuse is wrong no matter your sex and you should be punished with jail time for it.

No on two parts.
1.) I'm a mushy and unconfrontative software developer and by no means a warrior
2.) I despise common SJW tactics to the extreme and would rather vote for a right winger that I know to be full of shit then for someone using these schoolyard bully 1984 esque tactics. At least the right winger will tell me when they're fucking me.
That's just wrong. If you believe that you need radical corrective action to achieve equality, then you're a feminist. It's in the name. Most people who are anti feminists are actually not against equality, they're just against discrimination in the other direction to achieve it.
One example would be a female quota in boardrooms and universities. That's just open sexist discrimination against men in the plainest sense of the word. Which is why many people are against it. Yet the vast majority of feminists are for it (from what I've seen / heard). Two wrongs don't make a right and discrimination in any way is a wrong. What feminists essentially want is screw the men too so that we're all equally screwed while widely ignoring the issues in which men are getting screwed. It's lopsided and "focusing on a specific side of the issue to be productive" is just a flower coating for what you're doing: sexist discrimination in the name of your progress.

Why do you equate condoms to BC for women? Hormonal birth control can help women with various things, like reducing how much bleeding there is from periods, reducing cramps, stopping/delaying periods, can help against acne and syndromes such as pcos or conditions like endometriosis. It also serves to stop pregnancy, which can bring with it various health problems too.
