It's more people who say that they're not, rather than people who don't mention it. I'm just confused that any woman (and really, most men) can say in that tone of confused horror "Oh, I'm not a feminist." which no one here has said, but it bugs me. It is not the equivelant of being a leper, dudes.
Also, I'm a bit of a reclaim the language kinda person. It doesn't come up often, but if it does then I say a quick "I like earning money and not having to give up my job if I get preggers, how about you?"
Maybe I deal with non-argumentative people more. Others have mentioned that they've had people tell them that feminists have made things worse. Which makes me cry.
