Some women opposed the feminist movement in the US during the 1970s due to concerns that it undermined traditional family values and roles, which they believed were essential for societal stability. Others felt that the movement did not adequately represent their experiences or priorities, particularly those of women of color, working-class women, or those in rural areas. Additionally, some women were wary of what they perceived as a radical agenda that sought to dismantle established social norms. This opposition highlighted the diverse perspectives within the broader discourse on gender equality.
No. Not all women's movements are feminist. There are actually a handful of anti-feminist women's movements right now, who argue that the feminist movement has been detrimental to women, families, and society.
The feminist movement is still current, so women want now what they have always wanted: equality. Feminism seeks to give women equal footing socially and economically to men.
Technically, all you have to do is identify as a feminist. At worst, you'd be a bad feminist (as opposed to not a real feminist) because feminism is a movement, not an organisation. To be a good feminist, you'd have to engage in women's rights advocacy or women's rights activism.
It had undertones of Lesbianism and helped women to transition away from an oppressive patriarchy to Lesbianism.
Working in the abolitionist movement gave women a sense of political aspirations. As a result, women became more concerned about the feminist movement.
Several unfair reasons still exist that were not solved by the feminist movement. One of the most egregious is the disparity in pay between men and women.

Feminism is the movement that supports gender equality. To be a feminist is thus to be someone who thinks that men and women should be equal socially and economically.
It didn’t. Women went back to the house and raising children after the war. It will be 40 years before there is a women’s movement.
It depends on what you regard as the "feminist movement". Some would consider that fighting for women's rights was a precursor to the main feminist movement of the 1970s. If this is the case, then the feminist movement arguably began with Dame Roma Mitchell whose influence led to the formation of the Women Law Students' Society, when she was not permitted to join the Law Students' Society because she was a woman. On 23 September 1965, Mitchell was made a Justice of the Supreme Court of South Australia in 1965, the first Australian woman to achieve this position. Pioneering the Australian women's rights movement, Mitchell was also the first woman in Australia to be a Queen's Counsel (1962).
"Women's peace army" does not compute. Women's Liberationist Movement (nick-named "Women's Lib" for short/or the "Feminist Movement") allied themselves with the civil rights movement, etc.
They advocated for women to work outside the home in a paid job.
