MISCONCEPTIONS

Dear friends since the past couple of years since I have openly declared that I am a feminist and a feminism supporter,I have received many views,opinions about it.At first I took all of them very lightly,but now I wish to bring it to light to many people what feminism is and what is not feminism.


BEING A FEMINIST DOESN'T MEAN
-YOU ARE A LESBIAN
-YOU HATE ALL MEN
-YOU ARE UGLY
-YOU HAVE BEEN DITCHED OR DUMPED BY MORE THAN 1 GUY
-YOU ARE ANTI-MEN
-YOU ARE ASEXUAL
-YOU BELIEVE IN AMAZONIA
-YOU BELIEVE THAT ALL MEN SHOULD BE KICKED IN THEIR BALLS
-YOU BELIEVE THAT ALL MEN SHOULD BE CASTRATED
-YOU WANT ALL THE MEN TO BE KILLED AND THIS SHOULD BE A WOMEN'S ONLY WORLD
-YOU DON'T WEAR BRAS(BRA BURNING WAS DONE BY CONTEMPORARY FEMINISTS,IT IS NOT PRACTICED ANY MORE)
-YOU BELIEVE IN REMAINING A VIRGIN FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE
-YOU CHOOSE CAREER OVER MOTHERHOOD
-YOU PREFER DATING A HERMAPHRODITE OVER A MAN
-YOU BASH-UP EVERY GUY WHOM YOU SEE.
-YOU DRESS UP LIKE A GUY AND START BEHAVING LIKE ONE(CROSSDRESSING)
-YOU CONSPIRE TO ASSASINATE EKTA KAPOOR






WHAT FEMINISM IS

-YOU BELIEVE IN EQUAL RIGHTS FOR BOTH THE SEXES
-YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN TERMS LIKE FAIRER SEX OR STRONGER SEX
-YOU STAND UP TO VIOLENCE,SEXUAL ABUSE OR ANY OTHER CRIME COMMITTED AGAINST YOU
-YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
-YOU BELIEVE IN FOLLOWING UNCONVENTIONAL METHODS OR WAYS TO LIVE YOUR LIFE
-YOU BELIEVE IN BEING INDEPENDANT IN ALL ASPECTS OF YOUR LIFE
-YOU BELIEVE BALANCING BOTH A CAREER AND MOTHERHOOD
-YOU HAVE ACCEPTED HOW AND WHAT YOU ARE
-YOU TAKE EVERY CHALLENGE IN YOUR STRIDE
