How to keep from overreacting?

You might have guessed by now that I'm not a fan of a lot of the results of feminism on society, but how best to keep from overreacting?

Like most movements, it's had its pros and cons. On the positive side, for example, there's been change of the sort that you find described in the following quote:

There is no doubt in my mind that the [feminist] movement has brought greater respect and dignity for females, especially in the business world. Prior to 1965, it was not uncommon for an attractive young woman in the work force to be treated like a piece of flesh, a toy to be used by men ... In this and many ways, the elevated self-concept of women has been a healthy phenomenon in our culture.

Dr. James Dobson, Focus on the Family, cited on p. 50 of No More Christian Nice Guy

(On the other hand, "respect and dignity" isn't what I'd describe as part and parcel of the sort of changes described in Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women and the Rise of Raunch Culture).
