As a feminist, I can say that the real reason behind me being a feminist is that there still are HUGE differences in for example salary between the genders. In my old job I earned 60 % less than the men who did the exact same job as me, not better or worse, but they had cocks between their legs. This is nothing unusual, and it pisses me off to no end. So I am a feminist who is fighting for the rights to be an equal to the men, but do I want to be a man? No way! I just want to be a woman who have the same opportunities etc as the rest of the population out there who have cocks. it's a very annoying thing, the unequality, and it's not a matter of "this is how it is" it's for me a matter of, I am not going to tolerate it and so therefor I am working towards a more equal society.
Also, when it comes to porn, it's also an unequality...women ARE more exploited than men, unfortunatly, and that is why that is an issue for many feminists. That is not to say that no men are exploited, I am sure there are lots of those too and that is equally bad, but in the society where we live, in the western world, women are being viewed more like objects or play-toys for men, whereas the men are the players, the ones who play with the objects. That is what I can't stand about regular porn. It's rather disgusting I think...and that is why a lot of feminists are against porn, but not all of course. The point is that we're all different and you're as entitle to your view as anyone else is.
My son for example, is a huge feminist, but that doesn't mean that he will thikn that all stuff that comes out from another feminists mouth is correct, of course not, specially when it comes out of his mothers feministic mouth. :P
