Quick Question/Survey

I have a long set of thoughts regarding feminism based on an interesting site I mostly agree with that I found, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] chrissmari. I was talking with a couple people online and in real life about this, and I'm realizing that how I define feminism does not seem to agree with how others define it.
So I'm curious what you people out in LJ-land think.
I expect to post more about this soon, but for now... a poll.

[Poll #80464]

Feminism was originally defined by the movement's first leaders as the first choice above in your poll. As such, that is how I define feminism. The Feminine Mystique is a great book about feminism and conspiracy theories and about how things SHOULD go, as opposed to the mess they are now.
