Part of HuffPost Women.Verizon Media. All rights reserved.I am talking about the fact that Emma Watson has revealed that our culture cannot handle a woman who is both sexual AND serious, to quote Naomi Wolf.
A post shared by Vanity Fair (vanityfair) on Feb 28, 2017 at 10:02am PST. It appears as though flaunting ones figure and a feminist agenda are mutually exclusive. The most egregious of the claims against Watson in the aftermath of this photo, though, is that she is a bad feminist. The fight towards gender equality is contingent on women having a CHOICE. Intrinsic in anyones feminist agenda should lie the power of choice and the power to be multi-dimensional human beings of society. Women can be smart and sexual and sassy and sophisticated and still want to make the same amount of money as their male counterparts, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. Maybe were just expert multi-taskers or maybe we are just sick and tired of being put in a box that continuously deprives us of our humanity. Our messages and means of expression all work in concert to create the multi-faceted, multi- layered, and multi-talented badasses that we, as women, are and will continue to be.
