As a movement, feminism is collectively headed down the path to radicalism.The last one is crucial. In the US, for example, feminists' #1 issue as a movement is now how convenient it is for women to access reproductive health services. Not whether or not women have the right to abortion, birth control pills, et cetera, but how affordable it is, how long a drive is needed to get to a clinic, how many protesters are allowed where, what sorts of decisions insurers are allowed to make with regard to coverage and pricing, et cetera.
- Within feminism it is fashionable to identify yourself as "radical" even if you are not, so people are making a display out of radicalism in order to score points in an in-group way.
- There's very little effort by feminists to exclude hateful misandry from the movement.
- Feminism has a long history of not doing anything in particular on behalf of problems thought to be men's problems, but feminists violently attack any independent group that attempts to address gendered problems.
- "Tumblr-feminism," as it might be called, is in a very unhealthy place where affirmation replaces information - a growing problem for a number of groups now that the Internet lets them insulate themselves from having to communicate with outside thought so much more effectively.
- Most of the important policy victories of feminism have already been won in the modern West.

Constantly playing the victim and continuing to focus on western society will not achieve that end.

Only looking at legislation is a shallow approach to understanding and combating oppression.

Okay. Apply that logic to any other issue that is many times worse in other countries and see how far you get before you realise how flawed that logic is.
