“A Woman Walks Down the Street” by Carolita Johnson.
It doesn’t matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I’m a woman or a man.
What does feminism mean to you?
People are so scared of seeing a woman be like, ‘This is who I am!’ You’re not going to change it.’ You know, If you’re a woman, you do not sing about sex, and now, if that’s not what you’re singing about—if that’s not your entire image—you won’t get played. I think it was the last season of my show, I put out “I Can’t Be Tamed,” which that, even just the title of that—for a woman to say that she can’t be tamed? In front of the world, my face, I can’t be tamed? When that’s all people really wanted to do? I mean that, I think, proves how sexist people still really are. It’s the whole thing of saying: ‘Be sexy, but… our way. Our way or no way.’

Please stop asking me why I don’t like Taylor Swift or her music!
1. You cannot be an ally if you ever use “gay” as an insult.
2. “She wears high heels, I wear sneakers.” “She wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts.” Congratu-fucking-lations. Don’t slut-shame. There’s nothing wrong with either of those of those choices.
3. Must you always make the girl who is also interested in your blonde, heterosexual, cisgendered male figure - black hair, brown-eyed and wearing revealing clothing? Stop making your “bad girl” into a stereotype.(a rant by Alyson)
