This is my 8 year old daughter's role model

I'm sure there are better role models for a young girl, but in our pop culture-obsessed media-driven world, I'm proud she chose this one:

Demi Lovato Is A Feminist

Pop singer Demi Lovato has come out publicly on Twitter in open support of feminism. While some people consider the word “feminist” to be a dirty word, Lovato and other famous pop idols like Camila Cabello have been clarifying its true meaning as an ideology in support of equal rights.

Demi Lovato was pulled into the discussion with the start of the trending hashtag #FeministsAreUgly used by internet trolls and anti-feminists on Twitter to perpetuate the negative stereotypes of radical man-hating feminists. In response, many women, including Demi Lovato, tried to counteract the #FeministsAreUgly hashtag. While lots of female users on Twitter used the hashtag to post beautiful selfies to promote positive body image and self-esteem and counteract the negativity, Demi Lovato and Camila Cabello took it a step further in support of feminism.

According to E! Online, Demi Lovato first publicized her proud feminism by retweeting something Cabello posted:

“… the fact that #FeministsAreUgly trended is atrocious, ignorance kills any chance that humanity has at improving itself.”

Demi Lovato apparently didn’t think this was enough to get the point across of what feminism truly means. Shortly after the retweet, Lovato posted a quote from another famous musician, Kate Nash from the U.K., and a more modern definition of feminism:

“Feminism is not a dirty word. It does not mean you hate men, it does not mean you hate girls that have nice legs and a tan, and it does not mean you are a ‘b****’ or a ‘d***,’ it means you believe in equality.”
