Are you open about being a feminist in public and if so have you had to deal with people judging you for it? I'd consider myself a feminist but I'm always too nervous to call people out and I get really frustrated, especially since the girls at college are really judgemental about the life models we have.
i wish i could help you more with this but like
i just....don't talk to anyone HAHAHahahahaha.... (i have p bad social anxiety so like? my only friends irl who i see on a day to day basis are my boyfriend and my roomie, both of whom agree with me about anti-oppression stuff)
i guess a lot of my art is openly feminist so when i talk about it in class it becomes p clear how i feel about those issues, but i never really felt insecure about sharing those things
as for callouts i definitely tone them down irl
my anxiety makes it really hard for me to confront people but when i do i guess i do it more like to socratic method, almost? hahaha .... like for example, this girl in one of my classes had a project that made fun of snooki (she called it 'the evolution of snooki' and it had like a chart progression of a ~*~nice, normal girl~*~ in modest clothing slowly becoming snooki, with more makeup, spray-tanned skin, more revealing clothing, etc)
it was a total piece of shit and to top it all off she said she was inspired to make it after reading an article that discussed how reality tv pits girls against one another
and like??? rather than my normal callout, which would be "WHOA THIS IS A PIECE OF SEXIST BULLSHIT DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW MUCH POISONOUS SHIT YOU'RE REINFORCING RIGHT NOW," i just basically....asked questions until she got uncomfortable
"don't you think you're just reinforcing another type of girl-on-girl hate with this project? because the intent is for us to laugh and think the transformation is unfortunate, right? are girls who dress like snooki not really 'girls' anymore?"
and i've found that's a pretty effective way to do a public callout without seeming overly aggressive or like a ~*~social justice warrior~*~
anyway idk i spend most of my time hiding in my room either on tumblr or having sex i'm not good at being "public" in the first place
