[As a girl, you’re supposed to love Sleeping Beauty. I mean, who wants to love Sleeping Beauty when you can be Aladdin? ~Ellen Page]

[When you’re a girl you have to be everything. You have to be dope at what you do but you have to be super sweet, and you have to be sexy, and you have to be this and you have to be that and you have to be nice. And you have to—it’s like, I can’t be all of those things at once. I’m a human being. ~ Nicki Minaq]

[Your self-worth is determined by you. You don’t have to depend on someone telling you who you are. ~Beyonce Knowles]

[It is past time for women to take their rightful place side by side by men in the rooms where the fates of peoples, where their children and grandchildren’s fates, are decided. ~Hillary Clinton]

[I remember doing interviews, and people would ask, as if it was a joke, “So you mean you are a feminist?” As though feminism couldn’t be discussed unless we were making fun of it. I don’t want to deny my femininity, but would I want to be a stay-at-home mother? No. On the other hand, you should be allowed to do that, as should me, without being sneered at. ~Keira Knightley]

[I believe I’ve always been a big believer in equality. No one has ever been able to tell me I couldn’t do something because I was a girl. ~Anne Hathaway]

[The thing women have yet to learn is, nobody gives you power. You have to take it. ~Roseanne Barr]

[It’s okay, you know? It’s okay to be you. It’s okay to just not be okay. It’s okay to not be okay. ~Kristin Stewart]

[We don’t need to look like men or dress like men or talk like men to be powerful. We can be powerful in our own way, our own feminine way. ~Zooey Peschanel]

[There are people trying to take away rights that our mothers, grandmothers, and great grandmothers fought for: our right to vote, our right to choose, affordable quality education, equal pay, access to health care. We the people, can’t let that happen. ~Kerry Washington]

Here are some awesome and empowering quotes from several very strong female celebrities. 

And Kristen Stewart.

No, you know what? Fuck you.

Let me tell you about Kristen Stewart.

Let’s talk about how she’s the centerpiece of one of the most inexplicably popular misogynistic pieces of film shit and somehow gets blamed for it sucking, despite the fact that, hey, the books were actually worse. For those who were lucky enough to escape reading the actual books, her apparent lack of emotion is 100% accurate to Bella’s character, because Bella is in fact not a character but a blank white wall for fourteen-year-old girls to project themselves onto. Robert Pattinson is not the only one in the cast who hates Twilight, thank you.

Let’s talk about how she got crucified in the media for having an affair with a married man, when that man was her director. And let’s remember that she was called all manner of things for “ruining her relationship with RPattz” when she wasn’t even engaged to the dude, let alone married with kids. But oh no, she gets called a slut because she’s Kristen Stewart, she gets her career fucked because she’s Kristen Stewart, and the dude gets off scott free.

Let’s talk about how she is incredibly shy and anxious (rather, incidentally, like Chris Evans) but does film anyway, because she’s just that awesome.

Fuck your noise. She’s not the best actor in the world but she sure as hell doesn’t deserve that kind of shit.

…Huh. Y’know, you Tumblr-folk are pretty adept at getting me to respect the Twilight stars again. Good for you.

Re-blogging because even though I can’t read any of the images (I can’t blame the inaccessible tumblr UI for the tumblr CULTURE, which breaks every basic rule of accessibility by taking text and turning it into damn images, WTH), the hate on people have for Kristen Stewart is deeply reactionary and antifeminist.

We’re supposed to have a certain reaction when a young, up-and-coming actress sleeps with her married director.

It’s not supposed to be anger at the ACTRESS.

Not to mention she did a damn good job as Joan Jett. She’s not a terrible actress just because you love to hate movies aimed at girls.

Transcription added. *waits to see how many reblogs before transcription is snipped*

She played Joan Jett? How come I never hear about the things I want to hear about??

“I’ll never forget the day Marilyn and I were walking around New York City, just having a stroll on a nice day. She loved New York because no one bothered her there like they did in Hollywood, she could put on her plain-jane clothes and no one would notice her. She loved that. So as we we’re walking down Broadway, she turns to me and says ‘Do you want to see me become her?’ I didn’t know what she meant but I just said ‘Yes’- and then I saw it. I don’t know how to explain what she did because it was so very subtle, but she turned something on within herself that was almost like magic. And suddenly cars were slowing and people were turning their heads and stopping to stare. They were recognizing that this was Marilyn Monroe as if she pulled off a mask or something, even though a second ago nobody noticed her. I had never seen anything like it before.” - Amy Greene, wife of Marilyn’s personal photographer Milton Greene

‘Do you want to see me become her?’
