This is the most disgusting term I have heard this election cycle. It represents intense oppression, so anyone coming with a sexist argument has invalidated it with that statement. I have always even understood even as male the feeling of being put down felt by feminists by also being black, but to use the statement "wait your turn" would say to me is making a mockery of what feminism first stood against. The turn is defined by the winner of the race, which in this case happens to be Obama. With a less harsh campaign it could of just as easily been Hillary. If you stand against bigotry a persons claim on that count is always stronger if they are consistent for all. True feminists recognise this in their cause and are stronger in their standing for it.
