    spread these words!
    We teach girls to shrink themselves
    To make themselves smaller
    We say to girls
    "You can have ambition
    But not too much
    You should aim to be successful
    But not too successful
    Otherwise you will threaten the man"
    Because I am female
    I am expected to aspire to marriage
    I am expected to make my life choices
    Always keeping in mind that
    Marriage is the most important
    Now marriage can be a source of
    Joy and love and mutual support
    But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage
    And we don't teach boys the same?
    We raise girls to see each other as competitors
    Not for jobs or for accomplishments
    Which I think can be a good thing
    But for the attention of men
    We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings
    In the way that boys are
    Feminist: the person who believes in the social
    Political, and economic equality of the sexes

      If you’ve watched her documentary you’d know that Beyonce never tried to send that message with that last clip. The reason she put that last clip is because it taught her one of her first important lessons of life which is that no matter how hard you work for something you can still lose.

      What a great comment that's why there is no love in relationships anymore and divorce rates are so high cause people run around preaching their own independence and worried about themselves rather than the children that suffer from broken households this new world sucks you can be strong and independent woman without having to teach the young psychologically it makes them not be able to be in love fully so don't be surprised when this world goes to complete crap because women are too busy preaching rather than doing! Divorce rates are at their highest and you got a woman saying how you don't need a man really smart this is the world we live in I would never get married again And quite honestly don't wanna be married now because of all this crap!

In the song when the lady was talking, she said that a woman is taught to never get to the same level as a man or it might offend him (something like that), but in one of beyonce's verse she says this is my shit so bow down bitches. The same way that the men tell women that they can't do the same thing as men, she basically told women that they can't do the same thing as her.

    We teach girls to shrink themselves“
    To make themselves smaller
    We say to girls
    You can have ambition”
    But not too much
    You should aim to be successful
    But not too successful
    ”Otherwise you will threaten the man
    Because I am female
    I am expected to aspire to marriage
    I am expected to make my life choices
    Always keeping in mind that
    Marriage is the most important
    Now marriage can be a source of
    Joy and love and mutual suppor
    But why do we teach to aspire to marriage
    ?and we don’t teach boys the same
    We raise girls to see each other as competitors
    Not for jobs or for accomplishments
    Which I think can be a good thing
    But for the attention of men
    We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings
    In the way that boys are
    Feminist: the person who believes in the social
    Political and economic equality of the sexes”

    Ok I see a lot of stupid comments and I'm just gonna clear up a couple of things.
    Feminist: A person who believes in social, political and economic equality of the sexes.
    Please be reminded. Its EQUALITY OF THE SEXES. Feminism isn't about hating on men. Its isn't about women getting everything and enslaving men. NO. Its about stopping the double standards between men and women and allowing both men and women being equal.
    When she said "bow down bitches" she didn't ask men to bow down. She sang that part for her stupid haters who constantly waste time hating and dissing on her.

    • @chiefsoulc8405

      They are either extremelly stupid or just trolling., or they don't like the idea of women speaking up. Otherwise, why would they be upset at Beyoncé for singing a song that includes that speech? Maybe their ego it's just too fragile and they're extremelly insecure idiots.

      Exactly. I've always been proud to be a feminist and I thought it was universally something that was a good thing but so many people are saying things like "feminists are bad" or "feminists are stupid". I never thought that wanting gender equality was something bad.

We constantly experience jealousy, haters, backstabbers, people we do everything for go out of their way to tear us down because it makes them feel better to see us fail. Because they wish they were us and know they never will be on our level. It kills them to see us win. The people who got mad about this song are THOSE jealous ones because they can't relate to what it's like to be a successful, hard-working, flawless BOSS A** B****!

    I have chosen this song for our class playlist to demonstrate how females throughout the music industry have utilized their voices to empower other women. Researching how female artists have impacted and redefined music through feminist action and empowerment, Beyonce's song '***Flawless' is the perfect example. Included in this work is the speech "We Should All Be Feminists" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie surrounding the narratives in Africa (1:26 - 2:21). Her words are spoken with power, discussing the sexism and harassment girls of her culture face. Furthermore, she encourages other females to be strong, independent, and proud of who they are and what they can accomplish. The popularity of this piece has communicated how strong the messages behind Beyonce's music are. In fact, over twelve thousand people have verbally expressed how empowered Beyonce makes them feel, and I couldn't agree more.

      Well I mean, they didn't actually say all men are anti feminists. They said the dislikes are all probably from men. That's two different things. If anything implying 1) that only men are responsible for the dislikes and 2)that the nature of the song wouldn't be disliked by women (because some women can and do subscribe to the patriarchy so it could be disliked by them) is what should be addressed since those implications actually exist in this scenario.

    Ever since I was a little boy, I've been taught that we boys aren't strong and cool and we are supposed to rule the world. Women were second class citizens who were meant to cook, raise our kids and love us. Being called a girl was an insult for every boy.
    I support feminism with all my heart. I want society with equal rights and opportunities and mutual respect.
