Nobel laureate tells film star term seemed ātrickyā until she was inspired by Watsonās speech at the UN last year
āMalala Yousafzai has told Emma Watson that the actorās speech to world leaders made her change her mind about not describing herself as a feminist.
Yousafzai, a Nobel peace prize winner, said she initially thought feminism was a ātricky wordā but now believed everyone should be a feminist.
Watson, a UN global goodwill ambassador for women, gave a speech to the UN last year to launch her āHe for Sheā campaign, aimed at encouraging men to speak up for womenās rights.
Yousafzai began speaking out on education for girls in 2009 when she was just 12. She was 15 and on her way home from school in Swat valley, Pakistan, when she was shot in the head in October 2012, for speaking out against the Taliban and its ban on female education.
Yousafzai said her father, Ziauddin, had been an āexample to all menā and called himself a feminist. She added: āIt has been a tricky word. When I heard it the first time I heard some negative responses and some positive ones. I hesitated in saying am I feminist or not?
āThen after hearing your speech I decided thereās no way and thereās nothing wrong by calling yourself a feminist. So Iām a feminist and we all should be a feminist because feminism is another word for equality.ā Men āhave to step forwardā to promote equality of the sexes, she said.ā
Itās the uniqueness of the photo and how people would portray it. Tumblr is a sense of freedom and a place for people to have their thoughts shared through inspirational photos, art, and quotes. For some people itās to let there emotions out and some people might see this photo as being free and letting life carry them through ups and downs like the kite. And to live life to the fullest and see all the beautiful things in world and not to hide.
