Yes  it's been a big year or two or 100 for the word. In 2017  lookups for feminism increased 70 percent over 2016 on Merriam-Webster.com and spiked several times after key events  lexicographer Peter Sokolowski  the company's editor at large  told The Associated Press ahead of Tuesday's annual word reveal.

His  definition was  'The qualities of females ' so basically feminism to Noah Webster meant femaleness. We do see evidence that the word was used in the 19th century in a medical sense  for the physical characteristics of a developing teenager  before it was used as a political term  if you will."
