“It’s fine to have women in your life you don’t like — lord knows I do. And it’s fine to not like Zooey Deschanel or New Girl. It’s fine for it to just not be your cup of tea. But I do not ever again want to hear someone try to justify their perfectly rational dislike of Zooey Deschanel, New Girl, or basically anything to do with any woman, ever, by trying to pass it off as them being some sort of affront to feminism and/or vagina-having individuals everywhere. I don’t want to hear any more arguments on what the right and idealized type of woman is and what the wrong type is. It is just as toxic and hateful to hear that you have to be a strong woman who doesn’t need relationships or traditionally feminine anything and who must be tough and fearless as it is to hear that women must be weak, vulnerable, delicate flowers. I am tired — I am so goddamn tired – of being told that there is no right way to be as a woman, because no matter what I or any other women does, we will be too something, and that will be anti-feminist, and we will be wrong and should be ashamed of ourselves. I yearn for the day with every fiber of my being where that never happens again.”Not hating Zooey Deschanel (and other feminist concerns) – Clacking with Julia (via thetroublesofmyownskin)
second time I’ve seen this today, sums up my entire feelings on this matter GO ZOOEY/JESS
