First, there’s the assumption that Pryde might not understand what she’s putting out into the universe. And then there’s the unquestioned premise that a girl rapping about teenage life has to be some kind of a joke. Her music is knowingly playful, with lots of funny asides, and she’s self-deprecating to the extent that she might not (publicly) disagree with these judgments, but I don’t see what there is to laugh at about her mere existence.

This woman is watching a sporting event of some kind. IS THIS FEMINIST?No. The culture of sports is a sort of miniaturized warfare, which incites the individual to lose him- or herself in identification with his or her “team,” in a proto-nationalist fashion, making him or her complicit in an exercise of brutal, organized physical domination of the enemy “team.” Thus, sporting events create and support a patriarchal conception of “power-over” in which victory — and thus worth — is defined by physical domination and conquest of the Other. It’s still feminist to watch “Friday Night Lights,” though. PROBLEMATIC.
SOMEONE HAD TO DO IT.

How can you be a feminist and like hip-hop?
- literally everyone ever.
“How can you be a feminist and like punk?”
- literally no one ever.

These kind of comments have always driven me insane. Liking — and to an even greater extent, loving — is not an intellectual thing. It’s emotional and involuntary. We obviously have to analyze why we like a piece of art and what is troubling about it, and we have to decide whether to support it (monetarily or otherwise). But you can’t control what appeals to you on a basic level.
