Um yeah if you date an abusive anti-feminist jerk while preaching about feminism, yes. This isn’t rocket science. Women don’t automatically become immune to critique on their hypocrisy just because they call themselves an activist.

Um... Did you read? Those are not the same. I think associating and condoning an abuser does negate one’s feminism, or at least the hypocrisy is worthy of discussing. People always give the “No one’s perfect” excuse, but calling yourself an activist while condoning someone you love doing something horrible is like…

We’re not talking about “dirt” like “she was rude once.” If one calls themselves an activist while condoning one man who she loves and their horrible behavior, then that does directly negate their activism, or it’s at least hypocritical. People always give the “No one’s perfect” excuse, but calling yourself an…

Sigh... I’ve seen people use this quote like it’s some grand solve it all, and no, it doesn’t work most of the times. If you know your partner’s abusive or horrible behavior and condone it, then you are also responsible for that condoning, even if not for their direct actions.

Exactly. Now people can act “outraged” despite the fact that they didn’t give a fuck about how many girls were assaulted for 5-6 years.

I think him being BFFs with a sexual predator like Richardson even after his assaults were well known speaks volumes about his character.

It’s not a niche thing. Sorry but this has been an open secret, even more out than Weinstein, for about 5-6 years. A whole bunch of models came forward and there was a huge petition to remove him from the industry.

Um, yeah they did.

Beyonce’s worked with a dictator too so I think we can safely say that she does not give a fuq.

Yeah thought the same

I once read people talking about how real people are so much more scary to them than ghosts because if you imagine that something is under your bed which is scarier? A person hiding under your bed or a ghost?

I honestly never understood why that story was scary. I mean, yes, obvious ones, but it seemed really too overdramatically written - too many frilly adjectives in a scary story immediately make me not believe it & not scared, cause this isn’t fiction...(Supposedly)

Yeah... How lucky...

It’s not the word that is the problem. The problem is that she cops Lena Dunham for some sort of a feminist guru, never mind that Lena Dunham has all sorts of problems(No, I don’t believe what she did was molestation. But she says so many racist things, has written a very racist essay, and even sexist stuff on the…

1) Someone asking me “Well hey, remember all those times you had your abuser’s back/so how were you abused?” is not the same as the Rose situation, nor is it what I have been saying, because I am not talking about HER assault case, or accusing her of anything regarding HER assault, and she has never had HER abuser’s…

It was kind of funny to me that she didn’t tweet for a whole year, and when Weinstein thing broke she immediately returned to twitter and started posting cute childhood photos, fashion inspirations like 5 times daily saying I Know we really need smiles today!! And some desperate BS when it’s clear that she’s trying to…

Probably because CRJ never tries to make herself the voice of feminism a la Lena Dunham or Taylor Swift.
