Lady Gaga NOT a feminist?
This video came along my way while browsing you-tube. Lady Gaga is asked questions towards her sexual references in her music. She responds with explaining if a man was reciting the same lyrics he would be a rock star but because she is a women she is judged. After hearing that i was quite impressed with and yelled GO GIRL!!! Then the question popped up "Are you a feminist?". No i am not i love men.... Since when does being a feminist have to do with hating men... Why is it so hard for some people to just admit they are feminist?

It's quite possible she agrees with many or most feminist ideals but not with all of the priniciples. Everyone is free to label and identify themselves as they wish.
The easy, yet cynical, answer? She's afraid it would tank her career right when it's starting to shine.
"Why is it so hard for some people to just admit they are feminist?"
Not a feminist vs. closeted or in denial feminist.
I have no idea who Lady Gaga is, but it doesn't seem like a difficult guess.
Why is it so hard for feminists to let go of the fact that most women don't identify as they do?
