Emma Watson addresses Vanity Fair photo controversy
Wasn’t she the one saying shut about Beyoncé but 🐸☕️
No she wasn’t. On the contrary, Emma Watson praised Beyonce’s feminism, in a long discussion article in which she talked about how Beyonce takes control of the male gaze that’s so ubiquitous in music videos, and owns it, defying the common instruction to women in the business to present the illusion of their availability to men who watch; and how what Beyonce does broadens feminism and how empowering Beyonce’s feminism is.
And then white male media pushing assholes lifted two lines out of it to quote out of context to fool folk into thinking she criticised her instead.
Because misogynists hate women and feminism and want to divide us.
