Rofl, and who decided that Women needed you to help them in this day and age? I can just imagine you in a pink frock and a feather duster, off to save the Women who are so oppressed!

(And if you don't think the latter applies then clearly you weren't watching American news outlets during the Democratic primaries in the US when Hillary was up against Obama. I was actually for Obama but I completely agree that Hillary got a worse deal from the media concerning gender than Obama did concerning race).
I couldn't care much for Hillary but yes, that is definitely an issue and I didn't say it wasn't. Also women who are objectified think they are actually following some kind of dream because their short term desires are fulfilled.
It is women themselves who need to be educated this time, more than anyone else. Once you educate them to stop feeding the objectification, the forms of it will diminish. Why do you need a Feminist to do that? This will just turn all those women into Feminists as well, in turn creating a movement that is not needed. It causes more divisions amongst people physically and mentally, when all that is needed is your lay person to know what is right and wrong.

Answer me this.

I care about such things and have done what I can to stop such shit by simply educating people. However I don't call myself a Feminist.
In this regard, what's the difference between me and you?

Yes the Black Panthers were an organisation of the "Black Nationalism" movement. If I just called myself "Black Nationalist" it would be stupid, so I used the next best thing which was more tangible.
