Feminism is not about Women first but about no firsts what so ever and that's why I can't relate to #MyChoice

Probably well intentioned but #MyChoice is another misguided stab at empowerment https://t.co/9SQpGI8DMt

Just watched the vogue empower video. Everything was going ok until she said "sex outside marriage, my choice".
