What are your thoughts on the equal, and opposite versions of that?
Clearly the extreme ends of the spectrum are not good for the masses, but I don't know that anyone ever talks about THAT end.

Apparently "toxic feminism" is a real thing
Toxic feminism can refer to a variety of ideas that some say are harmful to women and feminism as a movement:
Belittling other women
Some say that toxic feminism involves putting down other women in the name of feminism and empowerment. This can include making women feel bad about wanting to find their own identity.
Pitting men and women against each other
Some say that modern feminism can be toxic when it encourages people to target boys and make them cry.
Selling an ideal life for women
Some say that modern feminism can be toxic when it sells a vision of an ideal life for women that is self-centered, isolating, and indulgent.
Internalized misogyny
Some say that toxic femininity can involve internalized misogyny that encourages women to ignore their own needs to sustain others. This can lead to women feeling as if they are not as worthy as men and can hinder personal growth.
