Why Saying ‘It’s My Choice’ Doesn’t Necessarily Make Your Choice Feminist

“It’s my choice, so it’s feminist!”

This is a common refrain. But is every choice we make inherently feminist – or are we influenced by misogyny?

Check out this comic with a smart perspective on this tough question. Does it make you think differently about any of your choices?

And if you choose to wear make-up, that’s great too. Let’s work to make sure that people aren’t pressured or shamed into wearing or not wearing make-up!

With Love,
The Editors at Everyday Feminism
