"I wrote somewhere that if Feminism were a person, it would be diagnosed with NPD - Narcissistic Personality Disorder."

I understand the analogy, but the fact is that the majority of Western women, and a sizeable proportion of Western men, identify with feminism. So there's no correlation with NPD or any other mental disorder. If we wish to combat feminism as a political movement, we need to understand its appeal in terms of normal human psychology, not abnormal psychology. For example, Janice's account of her own indoctrination:

"The feminist mantra of heroic female victimhood had been the air I breathed as a university student, and it offered a near-irresistible fantasy of moral purity. I was a woman and therefore good. Men had to prove themselves good by allying with women against other men. I came to like the heady rush of sisterhood and the exhilarating fury of feeling oneself part of a wronged group. I particularly enjoyed the vision of myself as a bold heroine speaking against oppression (and being applauded and rewarded for it)."
