I always get โWhatโs wrong?โ or โLighten up.โ Half the time, when guys tell me to smile, Iโm not even frowning, Iโm thinking! Then Iโm like, Oh! Some men donโt want women to think! Do they all have walkie-talkies? Are they all in this together? Like, โOK, sheโs thinking, someone say something. Sheโs reading, go distract her.โ It starts feeling like that sometimes, doesnโt it?
Kathleen HannaI almost wish we would've filmed a whole fake tampon commercial around ["I'm With Her"].
Kathleen HannaIt was one of the first things I did on my own; I worked at McDonald's, raised the money and did it. I'm really, really passionate about pro-choice, because I wouldn't be here talking to you right now if I'd had a kid at 15.
Kathleen HannaI'm more interested in a feminism that ends discrimination for all people. It's not just about a woman becoming the CEO of a company or something. It's connected to racism and classism and gender issues that go beyond the binary.
Kathleen HannaI'm totally into Taylor Swift. I think she has super-clever lyrics, and I love that she writes her own music. Some of the themes she writes about are stuff I wish was there for me when I was in high school, and I'm so happy she really cares about her female fans. She's not catering to a male audience and is writing music for other girls.
