Feminazis
''Feminazi'' is a pejorative term for feminists that was popularized by politically conservative American radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh. Origin and usage ''Feminazi'' is a portmanteau of the nouns ''feminist'' and ''Nazi''. According to ''The Oxford Dictionary of American Political Slang'', it refers (pejoratively) to "a committed feminist or a strong-willed woman". The American conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh, who popularized the term, credited the university professor Thomas Hazlett with coining it. Limbaugh began to use the term in 1991. Limbaugh, who was vocally critical of the feminist movement, stated that the term ''feminazi'' refers to " radical feminists" whose goal is "to see that there are as many abortions as possible", a small group of "militants" whom he characterized as having a "quest for power" and a "belief that men aren't necessary". Limbaugh distinguished these women from "well-intentioned but misguided people who call themselves 'feminis ...
