The hardships of being a woman have been documented since the dawn of the world. It’s always a damsel in distress taking care of her husband, children, and household while looking after herself to comply with the beauty standards of the age.

The many worries stacked on top of her fragile shoulders can't compare in their severeness though to the general sexism beliefs about women’s image and their bodies, to this day making it seem as though we ladies don't own our bodies, but rather are here for men’s entertainment.

Now, feminism and feminist views aren't something we usually associate with funny feminist memes and jokes. Still, humor is often the best medium to convey cold, hard facts and the ugly truth.

What Does Feminism Stand for Today?

The original goal of feminism is to bring change and empowerment to every woman and girl’s life. As a complex and diverse movement with a long history, feminism aims to achieve equal rights, opportunities, and support for people of all genders.

Today the movement is influenced by various theories and perspectives, such as Black feminism, queer feminism, and intersectional feminism, that recognize the diversity and interconnectedness of different forms of oppression and discrimination. 

Feminism uses various forms of activism and communication, such as social media, protests, and art, to fight the patriarchy and colonial structures that limit the freedom and potential of women and gender-diverse people. Feminism today isn't only about females but about anyone who is affected and seeks gender equality.

50 Best Feminism Memes

Feminist memes are a great way to create humor and express the views of the feminist movement. Whether these digital creations are funny, sarcastic, or empowering, they can educate and inspire people. This form of art and activism covers many different topics.

There are plenty of tweets about feminism that are so funny that even the manliest men laugh at them. But the online world expands way beyond Twitter, so Bored Panda has decided to gather some of the best feminist and sexist memes from all over the internet.

Pregnancy struggles, anti-harassment clothes, this list features it all, and then some more of these funny jokes. Even Simone de Beauvoir would be laughing at these sexism examples. Scroll down to check out 50 feminist memes to keep you entertained and motivated! Share with a friend and upvote the best memes by these brave and funny women.

    Nor is only respecting them until they say they're not interested, and then proceeding to call them unpleasant names, while telling them what a "nice person" you are.

    And if you stop being a "nice guy" to someone when she doesn't want a relationship or sex with you, and/or you complain about being "friend zoned" as though friendship is supposed to be just a stepping stone to a relationship/sex, YOU ARE NOT A NICE GUY!

    Is that something anyone does? How do you know? Is it lots of men? All men? 5%? What's the cutoff for generalizations? Is it a PSA? Is it an effective teaching tool? How will I teach my daughter how to differentiate between the gender specific slanderous generalizations that are good feminism and the ones that are hateful and sexist. Why did someone misrepresent Lisa Simpson's character who is usually assertive, direct, and tries to he constructive and open dialogue, and instead portray her as making broad canvass prejudiced accusations in a passive agressive way. Maybe this one was written by someone with a bit of a chip on the shoulder about women because he made it like a stereotype of the bitter catty feminist man hater, and that's not very realistic or like Lisa. Oh well, what can you do, propaganda everywhere.

    Well technically in 2021 all you have to do to be a god feminist is not go against the local publics on sexism and and unless you go against denying bossing or being mean on a woman or a man based on their birth sex or anything then you are not femnazi and technically can be a good feminist. if you can justify your action so that you are not seen as a biggot by using good feminism then you are not a bad feminist heck plenty of feminazi I met where not sexist like if you are sexist then you are not a feminst like Of you only respect or like a movie based on birth sex then you are a biggot like If you justify your action so you are not a biggot then you are not a feminazi. A dumb feminist might say every woman went into a hard ship of being a woman while if you know sexism is illegal you can destroy any sexist. And not all smart people are scared of being a woman even in biggoted times

    I dont respect women. I have no reason to. A lot of women are respectable and I respect them,but quite many are not and I have no reason to give them respect. I am not familiar to great great majority of women and I dont respect them because I dont know them. It is a very stupid idea to respect a group that is as diverse as women are. Respect is a individual thing.

    Because all feminism stands for is just women being respected and having human rights. All that b******t about "hating men" or "taking mens' rights away" is not feminism, it's just being a d**k (no matter men or women)

    When I had just started to date my future hubby a male friend got his heart broken by a mutual 'friend'. I went to his house and he literally cried on my shoulder. When I returned to my then BF he got s****y and insinuated that I slept with him/shouldn't be helping him/etc. I turned to him and said that if I wanted to date my father I would live in Alabama and if he didn't think he could trust me he could leave. Whelp, we have been married for almost 18 years and he treats me like an adult...sooo, stand up for yourselves ladies!

    What Is a Popular Feminist Slogan?

    As phrases or statements that express the beliefs and goals of the feminist movement, popular feminist slogans are widely used to raise awareness, inspire action, and challenge oppression.

    • “The future is female.” 

    It originated from a 1970s lesbian separatist movement and was revived as a symbol of women’s empowerment and leadership.

    ADVERTISEMENT
    • “Nevertheless, she persisted.” 

    It’s inspired by a remark made by Senator Mitch McConnell in 2017 when he tried to silence Senator Elizabeth Warren during a debate on the nomination of Jeff Sessions as attorney general. 

    • “Girls just want to have fun-damental’s rights.”

    This slogan plays on the lyrics of the 1983 song “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” by Cyndi Lauper. It highlights the contrast between the stereotypes of women as frivolous and carefree and the reality of women’s struggles.

    All these slogans, quotes, and women memes prove feminism isn't only a theory but a practice and a vision for a more just and peaceful world. They blend humor with poignant commentary on gender equality and sexism, highlighting how satire and wit can effectively communicate women’s challenges.
