I'm a 'total feminist'

At least, according to this survey, I am.

You Are 94% Feminist

You are a total feminist. This doesn't mean you're a man hater (in fact, you may be a man).
You just think that men and women should be treated equally. It's a simple idea but somehow complicated for the world to put into action.

I took this and am 100% feminist. I am just curious about which question you didn't strongly agree with.

I answered "Agree" to the following questions:

There is no such thing as a "man's job." It is wrong for men to be given preference for any job position, even if women traditionally aren't in that field; and,

Women should take an equal role in dating. Women should ask out people they are interested in and take their turn in paying.

As to the fist one, sports-related images popped into my head when I read it - NFL linebacker, and female sports reporter in the locker room with the players. I'm not saying they shouldn't be there, but if there is such a thing as a "man's job" one of those might fit the category.

On the second one, I wouldn't necessarily expect a woman to pay if she asked me out. A few women asked me out when I was single, and I offered to pay when dinner was over. Sometimes they took me up on it. Others insisted on paying. I was cool with it either way.

On every other question, "Strongly Agree" didn't just seem like the right answer - it was the only answer.
