The goal of this annotation task is to determine whether the term \textit{feminist} (or its plural variation \textit{feminists}) is used with a negative connotation in a given sentence. If the connotation is negative, the annotator must also specify the semantic frame that best describes the type of negativity expressed. 
Please read carefully both the negative and non-negative connotation guidelines, which contain difficult edge cases.

Each sentence will be annotated with:
\begin{itemize}
    \item Binary Label (Connotation):

    \begin{itemize}
        \item 1 (Negative): The term feminist is used in a pejorative, derogatory, or discrediting manner, or more in general carries a negative connotation.
        \item 0 (Neutral/Positive/Other): The term is used neutrally, positively, or descriptively without negative intent.
    \end{itemize}

    \item Frame (only if labeled 1): if a sentence is labeled 1 (Negative), select the semantic frame that best captures the nature of the negativity. It is possible to select more than one frame.
    
\end{itemize}

Predefined frames are listed below.  However, if you find that some frames in your language are missing, please add them and update the guidelines.
