I think radical feminism is also important for this reason - to penetrate and expose these issues - but this is where things get messy and you end up with some really extreme, baseless views that call everything and anything misogyny, or the #killallmen hashtag and so forth. I don't agree with this, but at the same time I still think there are important issues that still need to be uncovered, and the whole GamerGate thing was from my point of a view a glaring, undeniable example of this. The fact that we're now dealing with this SJW meme is a glaring, undeniable example of this - not because of the people being called SJWs, but because of the people using that term to discredit people who actually have good reasons to speak out about societal issues.
Name three.
