MissMisa, I see you didn't take my bait on domestic violence I'll leave it alone for now.
As a broad movement what aspect of it do you disagree with?

Whether I agree or disagree with some of the specifics which some feminists advocate. As far as I'm concerned, the overall goal of feminism is to promote women as equally deserving of the rights and freedoms that men have.
