Lily Allen: 'Feminism shouldn't even be a thing anymore'

what do you think of this?? 

[QuackingDuck]

she's an ignorant pos tbh.

[Midna]

I agree that feminism shouldn't be a word, but we clearly still need it (even though it's like 2014).

 

She's forgetting about the inequality in the workplace and the double standards...

[VT Evil Queen]

Ummm...ok.

 

.... I feel she has forgotten about the whole male female double standard...

[fuckception]

Is she dumb? It's not the other women's fault if she has inferiority complex.

[EunMinYeon]

She has a good point in the first paragraph, but I just think that she's a dick and I just don't understand why she has to bring it up constantly, especially if you think feminism shouldn't be a thing why is that all you ever go on about?

[HTHippo]

She's said much more problematic things in the past, I'm not surprised lol. I listen to and enjoy some of her music (but lbr, even in that sanction, it's still so messy) but I'm not going to carry much weight on her words.

[♥SNS-Shinomiya♥]

I agree in some parts, but I don't believe men and women are equal.

[dinolover]

it shouldnt still be a thing anymore

but it still is

because

there are still problems

[Candykiss]

BECAUSE OF FEMINISM GIRLS HAVE IT SO GOOD TODAY

 

Female leaders of equality like Elizebeth Stanton and Lucretia Mott fought hard so girls can have the right to vote

 

The right for suffrage did not occur till the 1900's

 

Yes it's 2014 but it's still a battle for equality

 

There are extremist feminists but there are also more level headed ones that are fighting for equal pay

 

Did you know that men in the U.S of the same profession and education get paid more than their female counterparts

 

Ugh this girl

 

I can't

 

How old is she

 

Feminism is fighting for equality in legal terms not "OMG wat is she wearing"

[Kimberly Lipington]

Y'all either didn't read the whole fucking post and just the highlighted parts or are just wanking each other.

[Delincious]

She needs that blog in her life http://whoneedsfeminism.tumblr.com/

[miwa201]

God, she's such a dumbass.

[saekutoxxx]

Wow,where do I start? 

[Banggu-dol Bomi]

She's obviously just trying to have a 'unique' opinion to get attention, it's actually pathetic. She has no idea what she's talking about.

Feminism is extremely important, we will need it for a while. Its basic human rights..

[akisame]

Lol, she's so stupid. Women still don't have the same equal rights as men, you only have to look at their differences in pay to see that. Who cares if you get jealous over a pretty woman? Not her fault you think so lowly of yourself.

[aripod]

She has an issue with internalized misogyny. That's not the biggest problem with what she said because society teaches everyone (including women) to hate women. The problem is that she thinks Feminism shouldn't be a thing anymore. Why ignore the double standards, the inequality, the fact that there are still women fighting to be called women... Women who aren't rich like her, women who aren't white like her. She needs to stop.

[acclaim]

Feminism is an excuse for fangirls to find a reason to rage about sexy concepts, But there's still un-equality in some work fields.

[toshi]

I agree with her on where she is coming from, if that makes sense.

[stinashawol]

I think she obviously never looked up what "feminism" means. what do you mean, the man version of feminism?? the point of feminism is equality. it benefits men and women. she should do some actual research and try learning something before speaking publicly.

 

and her "girls are the enemy" thing is just dumb, the reason women act competitive between each other in that sense is because we are told from youth that if you can't get a man, you will be unhappy and unworthy forever....thus we need feminism!!

[galaxys]

she's really dumb

[duhleenuh]

I agree with the "thesis", so to speak, but not at all with her reasoning.

 

She made it out like it's so much simpler than it really is. You can't say really say something like that, not back it up substantially, and then expect to be taken seriously.

[duhleenuh]

Whoop, a girl got double-posted.

[tousle]

she's mad because she got gigantic thighs

[tabii101]

"where;s the male word equivalent of feminism"

 

 

this lady is far too ignorant, not sure if to laugh or to feel offended.
