Gender equality is not a goal from which women alone could benefit. It's a goal from which men would also benefit, as all genders would be freed from arbitrary standards they feel compelled to abide to. Whether you are a man or a woman, be a feminist, fight for gender equality, and the whole of humanity will benefit from it.

Why I need feminism #7
I never really got the meaning of whistling. To me it sounds like it's similar to giving a grade: "If I whistle you've passed the sexy-body-test, if I don't then you haven't", or something like that.
Well, when I walk down the street usually it's because I have to (or want to) go somewhere, not because I want to put my body on display and be judged for it.
Besides, I'm not a dog, so don't whistle at me. If you really feel like you want to talk to me for one reason or another, then you should come up to me and say "Excuse me Miss" or something along those lines.
Thank you.
