I'm sure there's probably some cognitive dissonance at play with her. She's able to see all of these bad things feminism ended up causing but is it feminism's fault? Noooooo it couldn't be that! I-it's "bio-libertarianism!" Women were too focused on their own freedom!! This isn't real feminism!!! (Now, where have we seen this before? 🤔)

She just needs to take that one last step out of the comfortable confines of her ideology but just can't bring herself to do it. That's understandable (note, I didn't say okay). Most women are feminists nowadays even if they don't actively call themselves feminist because that's what society pushes and that's what they're immersed in from early childhood onwards. Completely repudiating it would be incredibly damaging to their ego because they've spent their entire lives framing themselves and the world through the lens of feminism. Everything they thought and believed was true about the world and their role in it would be completely swept away in an instant. This is assuming they're even at the point of seeing all the cracks in the surface. Many still aren't there and may never get there.

It'd probably be easier to take that last step if they had a different framework to rest on, but they don't.
