While Kareena Kapoor “is not a feminist but believes in equality” (What?), we have decided to bring you a weekly feminist watch to keep you posted about what feminists around the world are saying and bring you the best feminist puns, literature and comebacks.
Here’s this week’s watch:
This is especially for those men that we all know are ‘wannabe’ feminists:
To the men who don’t rape, or beat, or stalk, or harass, or demean, or dismiss women –
To the men who are disgusted by the rise in unapologetic violent misogyny in America –
To the men that believe we deserve equal treatment and respect –
What are you doing to help us?

Actually wondering what to do? Here’s your answer:
Here’s a critique:
The way kpop twitter constantly takes real life issues such as racism, religion, feminism, misogyny etc & uses it to fit their stupid narrative is so ridiculous. if you wanna talk about feminism, let’s discuss equal pay, sexual harassment, trafficking etc. Not a fckn LIGHT STICK

“It’s no longer good enough to call yourself a feminist. What do you actually stand for?”
In a world where feminism is becoming more and more commodified, it’s no longer a badge of progress to call yourself a feminist. What do actually stand for? Sex worker rights? Abortion rights? Abolition of the prisons? Palestine?

Because hating men isn’t synonymous with being a feminist.
You are not a feminist, you are just a bitter fellow who is angry over the wrong choices of men you have made in the past.
You hate Men isn’t Feminism….— DaT AkWa IbOm Gee??? (@ClintonViceB) May 25, 2018
And here we have a man trying to vent out:
New age definition of feminism :
-smoking is cool
-drinking is cool
-sleeping around is cool
-divorce is cool
-staying single is cool
-raising kids w/o marriage is cool
But
Being married and having kids and having a wonderful marriage life is not cool.— judge Me (@ArainTweets) May 25, 2018
While this lady here tries to draw a line between feminism and “femi-nazism“:
Most girls preaching feminism and gender equality all wrong and discrediting the movement. Calling themselves as feminists and acting like feminazis.
