To me, being a feminist is about being in favor of women, and luckily, more women aren’t afraid of the term.  We’re such a big minority group that we often don’t see ourselves as one large body, laughing alone with salad.  emilygould: Obviously many men give a fuck what people think about them. But if they don’t, it doesn’t mean they’re insane. Whereas for a woman not to care – that’s actually pathological, self-destructive behavior, in the context of our culture. I love and valorize this kind of female craziness and the art it produces – I created a business to celebrate these women and their art. But I fear not giving a fuck, for myself.  I wonder what it would be like to let go that much.
