  Of course the focus is on women and generally LGBTQ+ people, as they are oppressed groups.

  In its wider sense though, especially with the focus on intersectionality, it is for a fairer and juster world for everyone as the systems of oppression affect us all in various capacities.

    I don’t know if I would categorize that as feminism though. Egalitarianism maybe? “Social justice” in the non-derogatory sense?

      Feminism is just a collective name for various ideologies with the aim of social justice for all genders/sexes. Within you will find many different movements with various qualities. It’s about creating societal/governmental systems that afford the same opportunities for everyone, regardless of gender, race or sexuality.

      You could see it as a subcategory of egalitarianism, which in general has the goal of social justice.
