Absolutely but being specific rather than vague when posting stuff like this is SO important.

Oh absolutely. Feminism doesn’t mean I won’t call out women who do stupid shit and it doesn’t mean I’ll take hate from them either. It means holding each other accountable, making sure we are safe, and helping women who need our help.

Sisterhood. Holding each other accountable, encouraging each other, keeping each other safe, making sure that ALL women have the same support and opportunities. Women of color, mothers, child-free, women in other countries, trans women, etc

Everyone working together to actively ensure equity for all people in the world. This post was inspired by Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad campaign. A perfect example of a woman who has, time and time again, promoted things that need to be questioned and challenged.

i think the proper way to reword this is radical feminists CAN be misandrists but ALL feminism itself is NOT completely rooted in misandry

feminism is by definition not misandristic. also women being mean to you online does not have the same weight as misogyny let’s not forget that alright?
