Feminism, by definition, means believing that men and women should have equal rights [1]. Kellyanne Conway seems to have misinterpreted this definition based on her comments at the Conservative Political Action Conference [2] on Feb. 23.

Conway said she couldn't consider herself a feminist because the idea seems exclusionary. "It's difficult for me to call myself a feminist in the classic sense," Conway said, "because it seems to be very anti-male and it certainly is very pro-abortion in this context."

Conway, who also has a misconstrued idea of the definition of "women's health," [5] went on to say that she views herself as "a product of my choices, not a victim of my circumstances."

What Conway fails to understand is that being a feminist does not mean being a victim of how you were born; instead, it expresses a desire for equal opportunity. Many men are also feminists.

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary continued its triumphant trolling of the Trump administration [8] shortly after Conway's comments went viral by sharing the real definition of feminism on Twitter.
