I have never really thought of myself as a feminist, but after reading a blog post by Myiam Bialck about the topic, I believe I may be an old style feminist.

I had never thought about how the definition had changed over the years. I definitely agree with the ideas that many of the first feminist fought for and the fight for women to be treated as fully equal with men ( for all people to be treated equally really). However, this new modern style of feminism where women feel empowered by showing their body and living a more casual lifestyle doesn't sit well with me.
So my question is, what do you think it means to be a feminist, and are you one?
