Our social media feeds often contain much more than just innocent puns and juicy innuendo. If we keep our eyes open, every now and then, we can notice important social topics popping up alongside funny relatable TikToks and mind-bending Twitter threads.

Even more so if we follow accounts that are consciously trying to make statements and spark discussions. Like the Instagram page 'Nasty Feminism.'

Calling itself a "leftist activism-based" online project, it unapologetically shares hot takes on a wide variety of issues, ranging from racism to migration and everything in between. Here are a few of their most popular posts.

Yah, I'm struggling to understand that too. Very much. And many of these are considering bleach injection or horse deworming medication. I guess this will remain the biggest mystery for me.

According to a 2020 Pew Research Center survey about gender equality, many of the values of the feminist movement have been accepted across the political spectrum in the United States, even among Americans who don't personally identify as feminists.

For instance, a majority of Democrats and Republicans say it is very important for women to have equal rights with men. Similarly, majorities in both partisan coalitions support adding the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

But feminists are much more likely than non-feminists to say the country has not gone far enough when it comes to giving women equal rights with men (74% vs. 39%). Feminists are also more likely to say the bigger problem is people not seeing discrimination against women where it really does exist, rather than people seeing discrimination against women where it really does not exist (81% of adults who identify as feminists say not seeing discrimination is the bigger problem, compared with 53% of non-feminists).

These and other forms of video surveillance are sometimes the ONLY evidence and there are still attempts to suppress it.

The researchers think these differences can be somewhat explained by partisanship: feminists are far more likely than non-feminists to identify with or lean toward the Democratic Party.

Overall, Democrats and those who lean Democratic are more likely than Republicans and Republican leaners to say gender equality is very important, and they are more than twice as likely to say the country has not gone far enough in giving women equal rights (76% vs. 33%). And while most Democrats (85%) say the bigger problem is people not seeing discrimination against women where it really does exist, a much smaller share of Republicans (46%) say the same.

As all movements do, feminism has evolved greatly since its beginning in the 19th century. Another 2020 Pew Research Center survey found that overall, the public feels the feminist movement has contributed to the advancement of women's rights in the U.S.: 22% say it's done a great deal and 48% say it’s done a fair amount.

But 43% of adults who say feminism describes them very or somewhat well also say the movement is polarizing, and 45% would not describe it as inclusive.

However, Cynthia de las Fuentes, Ph.D., past-president of American Psychological Association's Div. 35 (Society for the Psychology of Women), thinks such negative perceptions derive from media distortion-not the movement's mission of equality for the sexes at work and at home.

She also believes that many simply don't realize that equality has yet to be achieved.

"A lot of young people think that women's rights have already been accomplished," said de las Fuentes, an associate professor at San Antonio-based Our Lady of the Lake University. "We've got Title IX; we've got laws against gender discrimination. But they don't realize there are still so many forces against women's rights, like reproductive rights and pay equity. We still have 73 cents on the dollar a man earns."

Luckily, as the popularity of this Instagram shows, people appreciate the reminders.

Not matter what happens to this woman, she'll be able to look at herself in the mirror, because she has retained her humanity. Can those seeking to jail her say the same?

Yeah, I see those arguments a lot. Things like "He did have a counterfeit $20 bill!". AND THAT MEANS HE DESERVES TO DIE? Since when is there a death penalty on counterfeit bills? Or just on having priors? Or on sleeping in your bed? Even if someone is a real criminal, there is still a) no death penalty on their crime or b) a police is not a judge, jury or executioner and can't kill someone even if there's a death penalty on the crime.

School boy for me was fairly bland. School girl for me was a mix of normal and sexualized. And as a straight woman, I'm not in the habit of searching for sexualized females of any kind, so this is built into the search engine, not me.

The most disgusting thing about all of these things is that women need to dress in a particular way in order to avoid being sexualised. How about men start seeing women as people rather than objects?

This is why people see the hijab as oppression, by men who are so unable to control themselves that even a female forearm or shin may make them "sin".

This assumes Muslim women to be in western culture (it does, you just don’t get why). If these Muslim women were in the west then maybe it’s an apt comparison but I can’t even go home without being forced to wear some ugly ass scarf over my awesome hair, so no. It’s oppression and you slags are just helping them do it. It’s men’s jobs to not sexualize us, not the other way.

I 100% agree. It's also not their choice to choose what you wear. You should have the right to wear or not wear a headscarf no matter where you live. Neither forcing it or preventing it is acceptable in any way. People use the situation where women are being forced to cover to say it's okay to prevent headscarves but they're not opposing things, their the same root issue of controlling women and need to be focused on together.

I think it's interesting that western society hates on Muslim culture for having gendered dressing standards but is fine telling girls to cover their shoulders in school and work so they're not sexually distracting. Or to require they wear skirts for school uniforms.

Interesting that a friend of mine had surgery at the hospital I used to work at. This friend had always been disdainful of women who wear hijabs. Muslims in general. The nurse who looked after her wore a hijab. My friend described her as sweet and compassionate. I know her & it's so true. The woman who came to draw her blood, I know her too. The best at doing that in the entire hospital. Lovely person. She wears a hijab. Described her as kind & so gentle she never felt the needle go in. She never mentioned the fact that they both wore a hijab. I had to ask, just to establish in my mind which colleagues looked after her. Hopefully this gave her an attitude change. It's their choice. None of her business. Stop judging and take people as they are & show respect for how they express their faith.
