The photo to your left is, like, TOTALLY SEXIST, y’all. Oh, what, you couldn’t tell? The author of the Tumblr Is This Feminist? , however, knows with a certainty which stock photos of women eating salad or jogging are “problematic” and which “represent feminism” (spoiler: they’re all problematic). It’s time to pull the wool off your eyes and see Getty Images for the vast conspiracy it is. Wake up, sisters! ( Is This Feminist? ) Photo: Via Is This Feminist? Read More
