As soon as the word "feminism" enters a conversation, many heads turn off. People immediately picture vagina hats and shirtless women screaming for equality and yelling that all men are trash. Although there are women out there who protest certain inequalities this way, it seems this is a less effective strategy to reach the goals that many women want in society. It seems that these women are taken less seriously, and more people just sigh and try to ignore them the best that they can. That being said, the minute that anyone says they're a feminist a lot of people equate the two in their head, even though that's more of a radical form of feminism than most believe in.
