What is feminism?

The definition of feminism was brought up during the talks. I would like to clarify what it means to me:

It is a simple matter of human rights - women are entitled to equal opportunity, equal pay, and equal protection under the law. It is believing that a woman has control over her own body and can be guaranteed safety from male violence. I do not see feminism as a expression of sexual preference nor is it defined by gender. You can be a feminist and be male.

If you disagree, or would like to further define feminism, please do by making a comment to this blog.
