A recent post on X discussed a WhatsApp feminist group allegedly plotting harm toward men, with a user commenting, “Our Christian feminists will totally turn a blind eye to the trending WhatsApp feminist cult.” Another user, @oluwatoyinzoe, responded, “A genuine Christian lady cannot be a feminist.”
These remarks reflect a common misunderstanding about feminism, especially within religious circles. Feminism advocates for equality, not hostility, and doesn’t inherently conflict with Christian values. Conflating harmful actions with feminism misrepresents its goals and unfairly labels those who seek gender equality. It’s crucial to differentiate between the actions of a few extremists and the genuine pursuit of fairness and justice.
