I think they do that already. The fact is, most feminists, when talking about 'feminist' issues, are talking about domestic 'feminist' issues. Ask them about foreign treatment of women, and you'll get exactly what you're asking for -- women demanding that these bass-ackward countries evolve a little. There's plenty of press about feminists trying to use the UN to sway opinion on these, and other feminist issues.
The point of supporting a strong military is to keep others from imposing their values --like female circumcision -- on us.
Well, yeah, and I support a very large military force, too, but whether we can fight a one-front war or a two-front war, I doubt that female circumsicion will be making heavy inroads in the West. The military angle is a bit of a non-sequitur for feminists.
They're talking about socialist issues. It's mostly based on what's fashionable.

They are not unapolgetically declaring Western freedom is best. They are, however, unapologetically declaring is that big government UN socialism is best. If I were a a third-worlder I'd be ticked too.
I think most feminist don't give a rats rear-end about third-world women. I think they care about themselves and their own self-image.
Socialist progressives are good at giving orders. They are incapable of saying why something is right or good. Why is female circumsion wrong? Because it is cruel to women. Why is that wrong? Well, ah, well, ah becaus it is.
It is wrong to be cruel because we are all made in God's image. We have natural rights. Feminist don't belive this.
