View submission: Do your boyfriends/husbands call themselves feminists?
Actions matter a lot more than certain words. Feminism as a concept has a lot of history much of it loaded and all of it complex. You can go back to the last time only a few days ago we got the version of “can men be feminists” to see that lots of women don’t like men who call Themselves feminists and lots do and lots don’t care.
Are you hung up on that word or his actions

This is a fantastic response. In my experience any guy who’s casually dropped that he was a feminist in a conversation ended up being the opposite in his actions.

Him claiming to believe something in private is not a bold action. Him refusing the label because his conservative people will give him shit for it is a much more telling action.
