Why feminism is ruining relationships more than empowering women?

Is it just me or you also observe that many females who are (so-called) feminists try to show that they don't need men and ruin the relationship with their partners?
I am not against feminism, but this isn't going in right direction.

Feminism is a way of thinking and looking at the world, it is not necessarily a political affiliation and it is neither monolithic or unchanging.

I don't have intimate relationships with men. That is because I am gay rather than because I am a feminist. I work in sector that is traditionally overwhelmingly male. Feminism for me has been a coping mechanism. First, to establish myself and survive in a hostile workplace that actively discriminated, and continues to discriminate, against me solely on the grounds of my sex. Secondly, to find a way of cultivating healthy relationships and friendships with my mainly male colleagues.

It's working pretty well so far 🤷‍♀️
