This is so true. IMO it's basically a cop-out. Women only scream feminism when they don't possess the knowledge or skills to succeed further in life. Suck it up and step it up. Same goes for the other "minority" groups - our coloreds and homosexuals. If you WANT to, you CAN do so.

you sound like a misogynist

She actually just typed feminism on YouTube. Slay!

Viewing education as a tool to earn money is the smartest decision possible, given the ****** restrictions life puts on most of us.

Yeah but you can't view it ONLY for money. Money can be lost but education is forever. It opens and enriches your mind and gives you a better view of the world.

I'll agree that women and minorities are less privileged in this world, but some people choose to wallow in their own misery and those people don't go anywhere in life.

I don't think there's ever been a pop girl who kept her empire afloat on their own, or could keep her empire afloat on her own. There's always a good manager and A&R person and marketing team and stylist and producer and music video directors and accountant and finance manager and investment manager and blah blah blah etc. etc.

But her constantly making it seem like she writes/produces the bulk of her music and videos is ridiculous and a slap in the face to the ones that are technically trained in that stuff and probably taught her their trade in the first place. None of the other pop girls ever do it like that.

That's exactly the thing. Education for education's sake is a luxury. You can't go to school and study whatever you want when you're not already rich and successful.

Hillary Clinton is a feminist, she's successful and educated.

ehhh I've never gotten the impression she's trying to discredit anyone. she's just trying to show that no matter her marriage or her motherhood she's still a woman very in control of her career

Yes they do. The entire purpose of a pop girl brand is to make them seem in control. There's a reason you only see "Beyonce" "Rihanna" "Katy Perry" "Lady Gaga" on the album or the back cover, instead of all the writers and people behind the brand. Beyonce credits her writers, producers, and directors just as much as any other pop star.

This. You can't lose education. If your home gets repossessed due to college loans, you still have the education and nobody can take it from you. If Beyoncé ran out of money right now, she'd probably go finish her education.

I love you Bey, but you are the worst "feminist" ever.
