This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff
Brisbane, Australia
Activism but with cupcakes
Today, I went to my first meeting at the university women's group, excited to become a more involved feminist. The first item on the meeting's agenda? The upcoming bake sale. FML

Okay, I understand wanting to be feminist, so, doesn't baking together as a group of feminists to make a profit off of your goods seems to me to fit right in with that? You're not baking because some macho man has said "Hey baby, stay in the kitchen and bake some cookies." No, you're raising money for your organization to do more things. And you're doing it in a business style, so what's the problem here?

I mean, I'm also a feminist and while I believe a**holes should stop doing the "go to the kitchen" bullsh*t, feminism doesn't mean "everybody breaks every stereotype." There are women that are perfectly content to bake for certain events (or just bake a lot in general) and that's totally okay! Plus, it's an added bonus that it's making money. Feminism is pushing to remove the "normal" and make it so anyone can do anything they want, regardless of gender identity, expression, or designated gender at birth. :D
