Feminism was something I had encountered, like many things I now consider myself, in high school. There were the typical guys who would cry out “feminazi” about any girl who stood up for herself or who was mildly assertive. That was when I first became acquainted with the term. It was an awful introduction in all honesty. People also would react in horror to Marxism and thought Buddhism was cool, but just didn’t make sense (almost everyone was a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant at my high school). I now label myself as many of the things that people found odd back then.
