The authoritarian thing with feminism is a strange type, because it isn't so much top-down, as much as it is any feminist feeling entitled to enforce any feeling she has at any time. Steve Sailer hit the nail on the head here.
"Looking back on a lifetime of feminist dominance of the media, I can recall distant eras when certain feminists tried to be logical, but those attempts alienated other feminists. So, today, feminism is whatever any woman is upset about. It doesn’t have to be consistent with what other feminists are upset about. It doesn’t even have to be consistent with whatever other things that particular feminist is upset about. All that matters is that whoever is bitching claims the mantle of Team Women."
