What is your knee-jerk reaction to the word "feminist"? Does it have a positive or negative connotation to you? How would you define feminism?

I have veeery negative connotations about feminism in general and that includes being considered a 'feminist'. But that mostly stems back to a very bad Women's Studies teacher who believed if your opinions strayed at all from hers, you were wrong. Feminism SHOULD be believing in the possibility that a woman can be just as strong and powerful as a man in every possible way. She turned it into a race and minority battle against "The Man". I think feminism is just being proud of being a woman and not thinking that because you're a woman that it'll hinder you in any way.
