Yes most of it has been good, especially for ATRL's standards, hence me saying just "some" but of course there are those standard replies that serve no purpose other than to throw shade or be impolite rather than constructive. Though my first post included other social media sites as well which admittedly I should have been clearer about.
As for the actual topic at hand, like Emma herself said it took her time to realize that she could be dainty and sexual and essentially anything she wanted and still be a feminist. I don't think she really paid enough attention to BEYONCÉ to realize that it preaches the same idea. Of course Beyoncé's portrayal isn't perfect either (which is why I think certain people believe the label of feminist was sometimes slapped onto the album rather thought out), but everyone needs time to grow and learn, which is why (as we were just discussing) it's so important for everyone to be constructive in their criticism rather than try and tear either woman down.
