How exactly do you define feminists? If you define feminists as a few hundred radicals who work in universities, you'll get one answer, but if you define feminists as the few hundred million people who believe that woman should have the same legal and social rights and privileges as men, you'll get a very different answer.

I mean, my wife and mother are both feminists. And they both have (or are getting) graduate degrees in electrical engineering. And they're both masters of "rationalism and emotional reserve" -- so in a very glaring way, your argument here contradicts my experience.
