There are several reasons that feminism became a civil rights movement within the United States. The main reason was that women in the 1960s were tired of being treated as less than men in society. Another cause was the 1963 book, 'The Feminine Mystique' by Betty Friedan, which talked about the fact that many women were unhappy being housewives and homemakers.

Are young women today reluctant to identify themselves as feminists?
Yes, young women today are reluctant to identify as feminists - although with the rise of celebrity feminism this may change, however feminism was never supposed to be liked so many young women will still be reluctant to call themselves feminism for fear of not being liked. As well as feminists facing a lot of aggression, often feminism itself is difficult for people to get into because it involves learning new theories and unlearning old ways, feminists can be very critical of each other and unless you're willing to check your privileges it can be difficult to cope with...and people often write-off feminists as 'crazy' or call feminism radical and man-hating because they don't understand the way in which feminism talks or the theories used.

Has modern feminism lost its principles?
Some critics have argued that modern feminism has lost its principles. However, feminism is not a stationary idea, and has to change in order to continue to be useful. Feminism has gone through many phases or waves since its advent in the United States, from First Wave Feminism all the way to Fourth Wave Feminism. Just within the U.S. feminism has changed from a movement focused on getting women the vote, and from being a movement largely run only by white, middle-class straight women, to a feminism that attempts to be more inclusive to all women, regardless of their race, ability, sexuality, religion, class and other identities. Feminism has branched into numerous subsets, such as eco-feminism, radical feminism, and (Multi)Cultural feminism, in an attempt to acknowledge all women and all their experiences. Feminism in different countries takes different forms and means different things. So feminism has changed in many ways since its advent, but it has not lost its principles. Feminism still seeks to bring equality to women, and dismantling, and dismantling oppressive institutions, which are what its principles have always been.
