Hmmm that's gonna raise eyebrows but I think I'd know it wasn't meant seriously.

These militant feminists aren't really helping promote their own cause doing stuff like this. To reiterate, there are far more salient things they could and should be protesting against than this. Smh.

What do you all think?
..hmm, I don't know, it is a bit of a tricky one and I do think that 'feminists' often don't do either themselves or any female any positive sometimes because they pick at everything and are often quite extreme

..but I guess for me personally, I have an absolute hatred for the term 'slag' and unfortunately it's so often used and quite often by other females as well/I don't understand why they do that to fellow females..if they don't like them, then just say ugggh, she's horrid..I find it extremely derogatory and offensive and if I were single and thinking of going on that speed dating evening, I think I would change my mind with the poster and promoting of it...but then it's all just a personal thing and a personal dislike of the term, maybe because I don't mind 'jokes' like, oh go make the tea, dear/woman's work etc..?..
