Just treat people equally. That's it. Thats all anyone has to do. Male, female, any eye color, skin color, hair color, tall, short and anything in between. Just give all the same baseline and judge based on attitude and actions from there.

Yeah. Why can't we just look at everyone's asses equally? Smh
Honestly this is the answer. You can look and also be respectful to the person at the same time. That is what both feminists and others want. Just not the bigots, they don't know what respect is.
That's my philosophy.
That's literally feminism
No. It's simply egalitarianism.
Feminism is focused one a singular aspect, which in itself can destoy what it seeks to do by placing the topic itself as seperated from all others.
I mean yes, it's necessary because there are severe issues, yet the overarching attitude I often observe when singular aspects of egalitarianism are grabbed to focus on get quickly out of sync and even turn into what they fight.
I've seen sexist feminists who are not aware that they are sexist. Driven into it by the frustration of inequality which is slow moving and sometimes even moves backwards. Frustration can corrupt.
Gender inequality is a symptom of the broken societies we live in. Alleviating symptoms doesn't cure the core problem.
It's not disrespectful to look, and that's all we can see these people doing from these two frames. Hell, it's just about involuntary to take a glance.
It would be disrespectful to stare or make comments/rude gestures, but I doubt that's what's happening here.
I thoroughly support advancing the causes of feminism and women's rights across the world, and would happily listen actively to what she has to say.
But also Emma is pretty fucking hot. And that fit looks good on her.
goddamn, I'm amazed by the reasonableness of these comments.
She's a moving object, our eyes are drawn to movement. She's on the a stage. Most people in the room would be looking at her.
Lotta guys involved for a speech about feminism
Yep and it looks like a meeting of the straight white man club.
Spoken like a true not-crazy-feminist who does not have a problem with straight white men and who thinks can tell a man's sexuality by looking at him.
Foolish us. the traditional white male suit and haircut is how any gender that is fluid identify. how could we all miss that.
Sorry your feefees got hurt that the attention was not on praising the white male at every given second of eternity. Not sorry.
How progressive of you to assume gender identities and sexualities of strangers via a single still image.
That's why I said "looks like" and not that it is. Sad truth is LGBT people aren't often found in jobs like that... and it would be statistically unusual for most or all of them to be LGBT.
That’s why I said “looks like”
Neither gender identity or sexuality is defined by appearance. That's not any better. All you're doing is prejudicially perpetuating stereotypes.
I have a feeling if someone said that a person "looks gay" or "looks trans", you wouldn't defend them responding to being called out for saying that with 'I didn't say they are, just said they look like it!'
Neither gender nor sexuality is defined by appearance in general, but the straight white men do present themselves in a specific way.
You are right to say that this might not be the straight white men's club, but you would be wrong to say that the straight white men's club does not look like this.
Looks like as in appears, that's how it presents which I could have worded differently. How likely do you think it is that they're part of the lgbt community? And what insignia can you see indicating they support the community?
Just to be clear, feminism isn't about not being attracted to beautiful women. It's perfectly human to admire someone's beautiful features, regardless of anyone's gender. Feminism is about respect, equality, rejecting prescribed roles and limitations placed on gender, and acknowledging and addressing privilege and patriarchal systems of society.
Notice none of those things means you can't still like the sight of boobs, butts, legs, abs, biceps, or whatever gets you excited. It does mean that you shouldn't reduce someone's value to those things, nor should your excitement about seeing someone's beautiful physical attributes become a problem for them, like if you harass them or catcall them over it, or worse.
But Emma is well respected, not only as an actress but as an advocate, and she's there to represent a great cause to the UN. They can respect her and her work and message and still think she's a knockout at the same time. They're not mutually exclusive, and that's a pretty relevant part of feminism, divorcing worth as a person from sexuality and attractiveness.
I don’t blame them, she’s built like a Greek statue. A man with an equivalent ass would receive just as much attention. At least from me.
I challenge anyone, regardless of gender, to be sitting on that panel and not taking a quick peek.
To me, Emma Watson has got to be one of the most beautiful people on this planet. And she's also very pretty.
But yes, the irony here isn't lost on anyone.
A true gentleman knows how to appreciate a beautiful person without giving themselves whiplash.
🤷 they may only get one chance to look at Emma Watsons ass in real life... They took it. Doesn't make it right... I'm just saying.
