Kathy Stoll with his print "The past is male" offended men

Scandals on gender issues on the Internet are no longer news. The star of the series "How I Met Your Mother" seems to know how to declare about his civic position and successfully used this knowledge in practice. Actress Cathy Stall laid out pictures in a T-shirt with a feminist print and the consequences of this step did not take long. Criticism struck a bold feminist, but there were those who supported Cathy.

How it all began

In the distant 70's, the famous folk singer Alix Dobkin came up with the inscription "The Future for Women" and printed it on her T-shirt. In those days, this act was considered radical, and today things with such prints can be found in any bitnikovsky shop. Cathy Stoll decided to support the idea of ​​Alix, and went on. She made a shirt with the slogan "The Past for Men" or "The Past Are Men". Variation of understanding of this print can be a lot, but only the men themselves took it literally and in the worst meaning for themselves. Recall that the story began with a rude comment Cathy, which she left under the tweet of American conservative activist Ben Shapiro with the call not to have children.

"Extreme Sexism"

Then the attention of subscribers was attracted by a T-shirt with the slogan "The Past for Men", which they immediately called sexist.

This is what the offended representatives of the strong half of humanity wrote:

"By publishing such slogans, a person proves that he does not fight for equality", "This avatar is a personal insult. This is extreme sexism. "

True, some women considered the print not quite worthy:

"Most likely this is due to complexes about her father. I do not understand the hatred of men. Probably, these women feel bad. "

After some time, the actress was forced to publish a tweet with explanations:

"I want to explain everyone concerned about my print on a T-shirt - the slogan" The Past for Men "does not at all mean my hatred of men. All I wanted to say is that the future is for equality, and the past was patriarchal and it was sexist. This slogan is more comprehensive than the "Future for women", and also funny. I hope I have dispelled your doubts! "
