The lie of what we call "feminism" is that women can be as good at being a man as men are. The reality is that no matter how hard we try, we women will never be as good at embodying male traits -- ie physical strength -- as men are.
"Feminism" tells women that our natural traits -- ie nurturing -- are inferior traits to men's, and that we should downplay our natural traits while we strive to attain more male traits. We're discouraged from having kids, and if we do, encouraged to put them in day care so we can prove our value to society with a job outside the home.
The reality is that when men and women pair up and combine their individual strengths, they become an incredible team. True Feminism would recognize the intrinsic female traits as equal to male traits and would encourage women to embrace and embody those traits.
