1. I am not a communist.
2. I am not a feminist.
3. I am not a Zionist.
4. I am not too cowardly to use my own name on the Internet.

Surely you must be a feminist, as in "equal rights for women", even if it's a subset of "equal rights to everybody".
Equal rights for women is not feminism. Feminism is a specific American ideology. It has no applicability in Africa and Asia other than as a weapon to use against politically incorrect peoples like the Palestinians.
This is kind of an absurd post, for a few obvious reasons.

Re using one's own name on the Internet: there are plenty of US academics who do, as you know very well. I use my initials, but then I don't have an academic job. Are you suggesting it's cowardly of me to use my initials? Perhaps I should challenge you to a duel. Pistols at dawn. But I'm not going to pay your air fare from Ghana.
