Feminism is NOT equality of sexes, that is liberal feminism.
We don't want equality, we want abolition of gender entirely, a social construct having no basis in reality.
"One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman." - Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex.
“Just as the end goal of socialist revolution was not only the elimination of the economic class privilege but of the economic class distinction itself, so the end goal of feminist revolution must be, unlike that of the first feminist movement, not just the elimination of male privilege but of the sex distinction itself: genital differences between human beings would no longer matter culturally.” - Shulamith Firestone, in The Dialectic of Sex (1970).
It is radical, but we should demand the gender categories of "man" or "woman" to be abolished entirely and should blossom into free individuals with our own unique interests and behaviors without gender categories being slapped on us from birth.
edit: oof I guess my post would not go well with most liberal feminists here.....
edit 2: I think a lot of these conversations get stuck in individual moralism—like the fear that feminism is telling people they must ‘purify’ themselves of gender or they’re doing it wrong. But gender abolition isn’t about self-policing; it’s about dismantling a system that forces gender onto people in the first place. No one is obligated to ‘stop identifying’ a certain way—rather, the goal is to create a world where gender isn’t a requirement for personhood, recognition, or access to resources. It’s not about moral purity, it’s about collective liberation.
A lot of modern American progressivism has inherited Protestant ideas from its history of moral and individual hygiene—where social justice becomes about purifying oneself rather than changing oppressive systems. This is why feminism often gets reduced to personal virtue rather than structural analysis. That's why you see a lot of Americans using the words "gross", "yucky", its a reference to purity, There is no cosmic morality to aspire to. The goal is better material conditions and a more pleasurable world.
