My friends were so thrilled to sit on the plane next to the most homophobic politician in Russia (the one wearing glasses) that they decided to take a little selfie with him. It’s going viral in Russia.
My health professor told my class that in the late 70s he’d asked his class to raise their hand if they were a feminist. Every single person, guys included, raised their hand. It was simple, of course they believed women should be equal to men.
When he asked the same question 30 years later, a few girls raised their hands while the rest didn’t move. The term feminism had been polluted. Although the students still believed in equality of the sexes, using the term feminist was “taking it a bit too far”.
Please educate the people around you about the true meaning of the word feminism. Let’s erase all of the misconceptions surrounding feminism. NEVER BE ASHAMED TO CALL YOURSELF A FEMINIST. Happy International Women’s Day!
