Also, not to sound rude, but why does there need to be a discussion about including a feminist tag but the egalitarian tag got added immediately? Just curious

I'd have to agree with this. In fact, the majority of those who oppose feminism in the west do so on the basis that they are egalitarians (or so they claim anyway).
Add to the fact that specifically feminism is a term being used in non-western cultures to promote women's equality where there isn't any and I have to say NS really should have a feminist tag.

Feminism -
the advocacy of women's rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes.
the theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes
Egalitarianism -
the doctrine that all people are equal and deserve equal rights and opportunities.
a social philosophy advocating the removal of inequalities among people

The side effects of hearing a view you disagree with can include confusion, nausea, and vomiting. Just try and listen to someone say anything politically incorrect without doing any of those things. Obviously, then, we have to consider the precious feelings of everyone we talk to. Some people don't want to be triggered, guys. It's their right as Americans.

In my opinion, the latter two tags should be symmetrical. Call them feminist/masculinist (both positive connotations), or call them matriarchal/patriarchal (both negative connotations). The current names are skewed to the left.
