Australian comedian Kitty Flanagan appeared on The Project this week, and said what so many of us wanted to say about Women Against Feminism. (Click here if you need a crash course on the Women Against Feminism movement.)

Her basic basic point? If you are a woman against feminism, you are a little confused.

Boom. Drop mic.

This is what Kitty Flanagan was responding to:

Hmmm, yes. You know what feminism doesn't do? Only respect one gender. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Equality is not an 'everyday life problem'. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Feminism dictates nothing about how a woman should dress. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Feminism does not say men = pigs. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Feminism does not say you can't make your boyfriend dinner. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Giving equal rights to women doesn't take any rights away from men. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Feminism is not about playing a victim. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

If you only want equality, then you are a feminist. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

No, you don't look oppressed. And that's thanks to feminism. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Feminism doesn't demonise men, and it does not encourage women to falsely report rapes. It gives women the right to report them at all. (And even then, only 3 out of every 100 rapists are charged and punished.) Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Being a feminist does not make you a victim. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

If you believe in equality then you are a feminist. Feminists believe that men and women should have equal rights.

Do you agree with Kitty Flanagan’s response? What has been your reaction to the ‘women against feminism’ movement?
