Anything is justifiable if you use the right philosophical angle. (utilitarianism for example is capable of justifying mass murders)

The reason feminism is so debated is that they are fighting for EQUAL rights which are not necessarily FAIR rights. The most debated section includes higher wages in all fields even if they are disadvantaged in some (maternity leave, physical ability, need of additional facilities) and admittance into universities which has turned engineering faculties requirements for women into a joke while rising expectations for men indefinitely, and done the opposite for the fashion industry.

So it makes sense in some cases and places, but before making judgements at all, one must understand surrounding factors (especially cultural and religious differences) to say whether or not one should support a feminist movement.
