It should be quite clear from the original context of this thread, what type of Feminism I am talking about.

Well then, there is nothing wrong with that comparison. Feminism is the equality and rights and opportunities of women, and those who oppose feminism, opposes those ideals.
Aimed at everyone in general: Opposing radical feminism is a different story, and I think people are very confused about what they actually disagree with. Disagreeing with feminism is disagreeing with equal rights and opportunities of women. That is what feminism stands for. Radical feminism is a branch of feminism that takes those ideal to the extreme. I do not support this idea, and nor do many people on here, it seems. So please, do not bash
all of feminism, when all of feminism, in fact, very little feminism is about those extreme ideals. The reason you see so much of that kind of feminism is because it is extreme, and the media loves obscene, extreme, and out-of-the-ordinary things.
Whatever experiances you've had does not mean that all feminsts behave in a radical manner. To judge the whole of an organisation by meeting one or two people who claim to be part of it is not the best way to make an accurate judgement.
