Description Equal rights for all.
Favorite before using. Credit is appreciated, but not required. Usage is allowed only within deviantART, if you find this elsewhere, please inform me. The stamp template I used is not my own, and can be found here .

Author's Notes: Center balance might be off by a little bit, so I apologize if it annoys you. I haven't seen many stamps for the egalitarians here, so I decided to make one. As with my Pro-Choice Stamp , this is extremely simple monochrome, because who doesn't like black-and-white? Now, I know that there are egalitarian feminists, but this is mainly directed towards the egalitarian and anti-feminist peoples.

• "You're not a feminist? You must be sexist (or inherently misogynistic)!" - Nope. A number of egalitarian and non-feminist identifying people are women, so that doesn't even make sense. The idea that not identifying as something makes you lesser of a person, or supporter of what that 'something' entails is just idiotic. Forcing labels on someone who doesn't want them is just as bad are telling someone searching for labels that they don't need one.

• "Sorry to break it to you, but if you support gender equability, you're a feminist!" - No. Stop that. As aforementioned, this is forcing labels on someone that clearly doesn't want them. Supporting the concept and idea of something doesn't mean supporting everyone that follows it. Supporting Christianity and religion doesn't mean I support all religious peoples. The intended goal for a cause is not necessarily the way it follows through, and people should understand that.

• "You're an internalized misogynist!" - People have always had a plethora of wording to direct a very simple point. This is a radical feminist's method of telling someone that not supporting the people of a cause means not supporting the cause itself. Again, refer to my last point. I support LGBT+ rights, but that doesn't mean I support the organization FCKH8, because they are one that targets minorities and uses them for profit.

Now, a small disclaimer: I have knowledge that not every single feminist out there does this. The majority of them are actually quite sane, save for social media websites and whatnot. The screaming and loud minority do not represent the entirety, although they should be removed from the idea of feminism, as they taint it. Telling me that every single feminist does not behave like this is no better than chastising someone complaining about a snake bite, under the idea that every snake does not behave that way. It doesn't solve the problem. If you're a feminist, egalitarian or not, and you do not behave as the above entails; then this isn't aimed at you. The prerequisite description is for the feminists that are something along the lines of, "Free bleeding is best! Tampons are male's rape tools!".

Radical feminism because fuck logic, it's the victim complex that actually matters.

Of course!
I really like the points you added in the description. Right now, I'm trying to deal with an angry feminist who says "You can't be an egalitarian without being a feminist", so I can relate.

I know this comment is old, but I don't know why some people just can't mind their own damn business. Label-pushing just makes people less enthusiastic about causes. It comes off as borderline religious.

Yeah, that's bullshit. You can be an egalitarian feminist. You can be a feminist egalitarian. You can be an anti-feminist, pro-feminism, egalitarian. Perhaps you can explain to them that not supporting the followers of something doesn't mean you don't support the idea itself? I support feminism, but the feminists nowadays bitch about people opening doors for them, and are usually transphobic. I don't know, man; just link them this stamp and tell them to read the description!

I'm currently trying to figure out how to comment against her assumption that I'm a feminist, and her claim "You say you're pro-equality, but you're nothing but a misandrist" simply because I said several feminsts have "Male Tears" mugs, and that Anita Sarkeesian is a feminist.
Apparently, by making fun of radical feminists, I am automatically a man-hater?
