I do that driving around thing, too, but kickboxing is a better outlet, at least when I get to actually hit the bag.

"Feminist" labels are hard, and so varied it just makes it harder to have a discussion about without people feeling left out because what they believe doesn't fit what's being shouted or feeling they aren't feminist because they don't want the negative impressions or on and on. It's interesting, but frustrating all at the same time.

I think a movement (any movement) would benefit from being boiled down into a simple, base definition, which is just built on from their by the individual definition of, say, being a feminist, but that's hard to do, too. How do you take complex ideas and simplify them? And if you can, will the people accept that base?

I'd say feminism is simply wanting equality, full-stop, but then other people (who claim the feminist label and who don't) say, well, we have that or you can't have that without this or any number of things and then it gets messy and muddled again.

I think feminism is important, but I know it's hard and sometimes carries negative connotations or impressions which don't fit any individual feminist.
