askye at 07:29pm on 17/06/2010Am I being unreasonable if I say I don't think a woman can be considered a feminist if she supports discrimination against lesbians?
I saw that someone who claims to be a feminist can't be if they support a federal ban on gay marriage, Prop 8 and other laws that would discriminate against lesbians.
But I'm being told that's just unreasonable, feminism is about ending sexism, and those issues are just about gay rights.
I'm also being told a woman can be a racist and a feminist at the same time.
Which sounds insane to me.
