[=HighCrate=] removed my closing paragraph, saying \\\"Useful Notes pages are to inform, not to advocate\\\". It read thus:

-> Now that you\\\'ve read the Useful Note on feminism, feel free to go out and seek further reading. When you see the word \\\"feminist\\\" in the media treated immediately as a negative word, think about it and examine the usage. And when exploring ThisVeryWiki keep in mind that there\\\'s thousands of tropers editing pages, influenced by their own particular biases, and some heavy biases reveal themselves when talking about women\\\'s issues. It can be very contradictory and tricky to sort out, but like many struggles, that doesn\\\'t mean it\\\'s not worth fighting.

I don\\\'t think that it\\\'s advocacy to point out that the usage of the word \\\"feminism\\\" tends to be complicated and contradictory, so be thoughtful when you see it. Ffs, every other usage of the word \\\"feminist\\\" on ThisVeryWiki is describing a female \\\'\\\'villain.\\\'\\\' It seems to me like TV Tropes collectively distances itself from feminism, rather than advocates it.

Also, I wanted to provide a proper closing paragraph, just because that\\\'s better than letting a page end on a whimper.
