Being a feminist, just like being a communist, it's not something you simply say you are or aren't and get a little ID from it if the answer is positive. This is a very childish way to approach the extremely complex topic of how culture works.
Both communism and feminism (which is a spawn of it) had really competent, brilliant intellectuals who developed crafty strategies to spread those ideas to people. Antonio Gramsci, a Marxist intelectual, once said that his goal was for everyone to become a communist even if they don't even know what communism is. Feminism is even stronger as a subversion cultural weapon than communism itself is, since it taps on the natural gynocentric tendencies we already have as humans.
If you hold values such as:
- rape/pedophilia are worse than mutilation/torture
- women should both enjoy the freedom to hold authority positions AND be treated better, mollycoddled and punished less when they make mistakes
- it's ok for teens under whatever arbitrary age to have sex with each other, but not for an older person to have sex with teens under whatever arbitrary age
- just feeling attraction to someone under whatever arbitrary age should already be enough for someone to face legal/physical consequences
... you're a feminist, there's no way around it. All those ideological ideas who clearly make no sense logically speaking stem from feminism. You can be a mild feminist and even say you're an antifeminist and hate other feminist concepts, but you're still a feminist. You adhere to ideological concepts created by feminism, you're a feminist.
