What might the Dhammapada say about feminism
The Dhammapada is one of the central texts of Buddhism. I am not religious but I have taken a secular interest in Buddhist teachings. I am more attracted to eastern scriptures than to the middle eastern Abrahamic scriptures.
So I ask what in particular what would the Dhammapada say about today's shrill feminists and SJWs ever so quick to be offended feminism? Below are 3 verses

Those who are ashamed of deeds they should
not be ashamed of, and not ashamed of deeds
they should be ashamed of , follow false doctrines
on the downward course
317
Those who fear what they ought not to
fear, and do not fear what they ought to fear,
follow false doctrines on the downward course.
318
Those who see wrong where there is none,How much can I see Identity Politics, micro aggressions, triggering, political correctness and protestations by snowflake professional victims as "false doctrines on the downward course"? How much is their suffering being made a universal suffering for all to share? How attached are they to their suffering?
and do not see wrong where there is, follow
false doctrines on the downward course.
A man without a woman is like a fish without a bicycle
