Wow, this is probably one of the most ignorant and offensive posts I've ever seen in I:SB. Feminism isn't about women hating each other or wanting to be like men. It's about being treated fairly, not wanting to be discriminated against because some old crackpots made up a story centuries ago about a woman ruining everything for mankind by chomping on an apple and therefore thinking all women should be subservient to men because of that. Gender equality refers to the equal valuing of the roles of women and men. It works to overcome the barriers of stereotypes and prejudices so that both sexes are able to equally contribute to and benefit from economic, social, cultural and political developments within society.

You're right, you don't understand what feminism is or what equal rights are one iota. The bible, not demeaning to women and showing nobility to them? Don't ****ing make me laugh. It's ANYTHING but noble to women.
