Why is feminism important to you?
Feminism is a word that means a lot of different things to different people. We're lucky where we are that a lot of our feminist battles have already been fought and won.
Feminism is so important, world wide, because unbelievably in 2015 there are still some places where women can't vote, can't go to school, can't wear certain clothes, can't even protect themselves....it's insane. We talk about feminism here in the UK and we want equal pay, to be taken as seriously as men in sport, music, politics, work and so on.
It also still needs defending, some people don't see the need for feminism, don't understand feminism and it's almost become a dirty word by people who probably don't even think that we don't deserve equality but have this misinterpretation that we're all man hating, bra burning, aggressive females. Not the case. We've come a long way but we have a long way to go yet, which is why it's still so important.
lyrics
No more, no more
I can't take this any more
Release me, release me
From this purgatory
Yeah yeah yeah
I'd rather swim alone
In the deep with all the beautiful fishes,
If you'd only left me
In my cabin to weep,
Left me be,
But you disturbed a beast
That won't go back to sleep...
This ship has set sail
But we weren't ready for this course,
Please let me off board
Please let me off board
Please let me off board
I'm sea sick, sick of this scene
I'm sick sick of this scene,
Just cut the damn rope
And let me go,
Let me sink
Let me sink down down down down,
Down down down...
Yeah yeah yeah
I'd rather swim alone
In the deep with all the beautiful fishes,
If you'd only left me
In my cabin to weep,
Left me be,
But you disturbed a beast,
That won't go back to sleep
(She won't go back)
No she won't go back to sleep
She won't go back to sleep!
