Bollywood stars and their take on feminism - Page 2

This bw pseudos must learn acting n keep calm 😆

From their answers I feel their idea of feminism is bra burning women who hate all men pluck their hair and perform black magic on them. 

They all sound so dumb and SRK’s answer is the most disappointing.

It surprises me how many women are on the "I believe in equality of women, but I am not a feminist" train. 😆

It's because nowadays feminism has become more about demeaning men.. rather than appreciating ourselves and being given equal opportunities. Women only bring up feminism when it suits them, which is sad. 

The rest I expect it from, they are largely uneducated. But SRK man🤦🏽‍♀️

Katrina’s point is valid actually, but she messed it up with the whole “I don’t think I’m a feminist but …” crap.  Otherwise she’s basically saying as a female artist there’s more to her than her relationship.  

SRK’s comment is very disappointing but not surprising.  He’s said some eyebrow raising stuff before. 

Alia’s statement is a mess too.  What is she even trying to say?  

Kareena is Kareena.  She’s trying to say she’s proud of who she is while simultaneously letting us know she has no clue what feminism really is 😆.   

Katrina and SRK is feel know full well what feminism really is but are just afraid to be judged by all the idiots who don’t know what feminism really means.  

I'm hoping SRK meant he didn't want to sound like he was simply jumping on the feminist bandwagon.

Hate this *not a feminist, but*

I believe in equality but I am not a feminist.

I need water to live, not H2O (Google se chaapa hai, had read on insta)

I don’t blame them. 
In India, especially non-English medium schools never taught about Feminism. Neither colleges. 

In popular 90s culture, BW made fun of feminists and portrayed urban opinionated women as bad. Pop culture references never focused on the actual meaning that feminism is equality. You can’t fault people for not knowing this.
Not all of India lives in Metro cities. 

It needs awareness. Message needs to be told again n again that Feminism is movement for equality.

And even after spreading the message if someone still wants to say they believe in equality then it’s ok. Being politically incorrect is not the end of the world. Intent matters!!

Shah was simply saying that he is not praising the film to SOUND "Pro-feminist", he is praising it because the film is good  

It was a print interview to TOI during release of Dear Zindagi
