It’s the 21st century which means women are having it much easier nowadays. But do they? I mean, no one denies the progress we made when it comes to our place in society. But sadly, there are still some attitudes that are plain ancient.
Luckily, Twitter is full of strong clever women who won’t take crap any longer. Here are some funny and very honest tweets by women who are fed up with society’s expectations and with double standards!
1. We can all remember the bra-burning performances led by feminists in the 70s. Apparently, they were on to something. Why do we need bras anyway?
Damn boy, are you a bra? Because you make me uncomfortable but society has brainwashed me into thinking I need you

2. Make-up is not putting on a lie. Besides, men put on masks all the time (the kind that can’t be removed with make-up remover).
“when women wear makeup they’re basically lying to us”
i don’t see why i’m being blamed for a man stupid enough to think i have gold eyelids

5. This is still stereotyping, but hm… I think it sounds familiar.
6. Haha. This one’s really funny! Imagine a kitchen full of women armed with smartphones and tablets, all with Twitter accounts. Just taking over the world one tweet at a time. Woohoo!

Telling a woman to get back in the kitchen is a weird insult to lob on Twitter. We can still tweet from kitchens. We have wifi & data plans.

7. History books are all about the drama. I mean, it is men who started all wars, right?
"I only hang out with guys because they never start drama" Please read a history textbook

8. Pious man: “That’s what she said”.
9. Life goals men vs. women. The ugly reality.
10. The word “feminism” has such a bad rep.
"Feminism? no thanks, i prefer gender equality"
Water? no thanks, i prefer H2O
