Anybody else tired of these feminist posts about wanting "equality"?

This is about feminism specifically. Even if you like feminism in general but hate the points I bring up in this post, please don't misconstrue this as an attack on feminism as a whole. <br>I'm a feminist but I'm about to shit on other feminists so here we go.<br><br>I just read a post about the Mona Lisa wearing a burka, and all the comments were "Wear what you want!" "Don't force your religion on other people!" "Everyone should have freedom to choose!" And then I saw this post, and this is the only point I can really make about it. <br>Those comments just make me angry. How can you say shit like that, and then post shit like "no one should be able to FORCE you to do this/that, everybody should have freedom of choice!"<br>If you support feminism, but support things like banning the burka, you are not a feminist. You are the same as the men you want "equality" with, except you're a woman so you have a special snowflake pass to say and do whatever you want without being called out on it. <br>I've seen posts with comments saying "If you support Trump, you're not a feminist." That's wrong. If you support forcing a woman to do something she doesn't want to do (like wear a fucking BURKA), YOU ARE NOT A FEMINIST. <br>You have no right to call yourself a feminist if you don't let other women have their own choices. <br>I don't give a shit if you think the burka is "degrading" or "oppressive". You have NO RIGHT to take away someone else's choices and freedom just because YOU think that. <br>You're just as bad as the men who tell you that you have to cover up, who tell you that you're a "slut" for wearing a tank top. <br>You're just as bad as the men who sexually assault you because of the way you look.<br>You're just as bad as the men who call you a "princess" for wanting your basic human rights. <br><br>I've posted this before but it bears repeating. If you want "equality" for women, you need to treat them *equally.* Which means they should be allowed freedom to choose what they want to do, wear, say, act, without being judged or having their rights stripped away from them. <br>If you want "equality" for women but you don't support their freedom of choice, you are not a feminist. You can call yourself whatever you want, but you are not a feminist.
