this is an ideological view, you implicitly assume that becoming ever more liberal on every issue does automatically equal progress. in a similar mold, the success of such movements is not guaranteed. you assume that this flavor of feminism will prevail, because movements like this one always prevail. i guess thats the point where I disagree, I believe that a movement which goes too far and which is making the lives of too many people worse instead of better will fail in the end. the fourth wave feminist's viewpoint of "we always believe the woman, carefully assessing the credibility of the accusations is not necessary" as well as "screw 'in dubio pro reo'" are just two examples of going too far in the sense mentioned above.
You are taking the most extreme part of the movement and thinking that's the whole of the movement. That's why you don't see yourself as doing exactly what the critics of every wave have been doing.
Civil rights: Blacks want more rights than whites
Gay rights: Gays want special privileges
etc. etc.
