Exploring Extremes of Nationalism-Response (NohN)

I am responding to the post here.

What are the boundaries of nationalism and who determines them? 
I think in terms of nationalism, it does not just happen to occur. It is the extreme of patriotism meaning that rules, laws and regulation were already in the foundation and extremists just converted them into a blind sort of nationalism.

If a group is created in support of women's' rights, for example, is the enterprise exclusive to accepted members?  Would men be allowed if they supported the cause?
I think that if a man attempted to join a woman's rights group, keeping the idea of nationalism in mind, then they would not be allowed to participate. This is just an extremist form of feminism that does actually exist. The group knows who they want to support, and anybody who is not a part of that group they cater towards then they are not accepted, in this case it would be men.

N.B. as a feminist I disagree with this image.
 I just posted it to explain an extremist feminists
 mindset in terms of nationalism.
