Can a Feminist Be in Love with a Man? Breaking Taboos

Is this even a valid question to ask? The question itself implies the assumption that feminists are exclusively women and that there’s something inherently wrong with a feminist woman falling in love with a man. I’m not even going to delve into feminist men who support gender equality – that's a different conversation.
Would you date a feminist? Is she the most dangerous woman in the world?
If feminism were a widely accepted, well-understood concept that simply defined a political, social, and cultural movement advocating for equal rights for women, life would be much easier for many feminists today.
But no, it hasn’t been easy.
The relationship between feminism and love has been a surprisingly under-discussed topic in ideological circles. This lack of dialogue has led to the unfair

Wow... so this old cliché about feminists being frustrated women is still around... I used to think that the world had long grown past it but I have to admit that the world has fallen backwards in its respect for women these last two decades - and no, I'm not talking about Afghanistan (although it's true that some things have to be said about what happens there, too).
Yet it's true that as you rightly point out, some women don't exactly help, either. It may sound a bit too easy to put once again the fault on women and to revert to this other old cliché about women being mutual rivals and best enemies, but it's true that some among us don't exacty support the cause and are even the first ones to sabotage it. "Conservative revolution" might have something to do with it...
It's true that some women feminists in the very old days were caricatural and that some still are today, but they are a few crooked trees obliterating a forest of beautiful, straight, majestic ones 🙂

Unfortunately, I come from a part of the world where the term itself provokes strong reactions. It’s not just men—women too have openly expressed their reluctance to identify as feminists due to this irrational fear. The idea of women truly supporting other women through genuine sisterhood remains a long-term, ongoing project.

I see... There are many ways to "fight" and we have to use our strategies according to local terrain... there are many ways to promote good ideas 😉 and women are reputed around the world for being good strategists, so let's use our natural strengths !
And don't think that things are way better in my part of the world... the issues may be different but there are some, too !
Strength to you and our sisters over there in Sri Lanka 💪🏻🤜🏻👍🏻🤝
