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.

I am sure that if men would have menstruation it would be much easier to get sick leave from the work and also most painkiller drugs would be available without the prescription.

It’s all situational. If you’re saying that multiple times in a conversation and it’s about something completely harmless that you feel like doing, you need to dump him. If you’re considering his feelings about a big decision, that’s being a responsible partner.

To be fair, there's nothing wrong with "my boyfriend thinks I should" if there is no assumption of her just listening. The person you are dating should be allowed to respectfully point it out when they think you might be about to make a poor decision.

What is it that he has a problem with and why does he feel the need to give his input. Some men are controlling, but some men just have concerns. We all have concerns and we should all be open with each other and express our concerns. There's a difference between my husband telling me I can't wear high heels, and him asking me not to wear heels tonight because he wants to take me on a stroll.

This post primarily refers to when a guy is being controlling, or expecting a girl to change to fit his standards. For example: "My boyfriend thinks I should stop wearing makeup, he thinks I look better without it even though I enjoy wearing makeup." "My boyfriend doesn't like it when I dye my hair, so I'm going to stop even though I like my hair dyed." "My boyfriend doesn't want me to speak to other boys because he thinks I'm going to cheat on him." If your boyfriend doesn't allow you to express yourself the way you want (as long as it's healthy), there's a problem. And it's the same for both parties. If you're not allowing your boyfriend to express himself, there's a problem. Relationships are based on mutual respect for one another, not control.

I love how so many are pretending this is about him giving suggestions to improve her life when we all know this meme is about controlling behavior. but, I guess gaslighting is something that happens on the internet as well and not just in relationships. And in case that is too hard to understand, let us finish the quotes. "My boyfriend thinks I should quit my job and let him support us."" my boyfriend doesn't like it when I talk to my friends." "My boyfriend doesn't want me to speak to my male customers."

i love how so many are pretending all men are big angry ogres with nothing better to do with their time, than to control people. here's a hard pill to swallow. most men fend for themselves. and have to support women as well as themselves. if chicks are so independent why do so many of them just want to pop out kids, never study or work and just sit at home until they find a rich husband? feminists are amusing. not every guy is a demon. hell some of us have better things to do with our time.

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.

  • “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.
