While some men and women were happily adopting this revived movement, others lashed out, calling it “irrelevant” and “extremist”. Even the word feminism quickly became taboo at my school. I kept quiet and decided to take these condemnations and refute them in my writing. A few months later the school magazine was published, my article included. The spread was boldly titled “The New ‘F’ Word” and clearly explained that feminism is not bra-burning, misandry, and utter chaos and hatred. My intention was to set aside basic misconceptions and negative connotations, instead I was denounced for only writing about mainstream ‘white’ feminism.

It is about gender equality and that women should have the same rights and opportunities as men. Emma Watson’s speech mentioned the different gender stereotypes. For an example, there is the stereotype that men have to be aggressive and strong and that women are weak. Who set this standard? Men are just as unequal as women are but everyone deserves to be equal. “Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive… strong…” Gender is something that is innate and is out of our control, so why are we judged by something we can’t change.
