We haven’t written about Ariana Grande since she and Big Sean broke up in April. I was actually pretty happy with that arrangement – Ariana annoys the hell out of me, but she’s been less “extra” this year after her bratty explosion last year. And yes, she did behave like a brat. It was well-documented. In any case, Ariana was getting some criticism…?? Or something. Somebody, somewhere, said something about Ariana having a bad attitude, being a diva or a bitch or whatever, and she decided to write a Grande Thesis on feminism. From her Twitter (minor NSFW warning for language).

Okay. I’ll say something positive: I would much rather see a pop star engage in this kind of conversation about feminism, being objectified, sexual agency and society’s double standards as opposed to “OMG, I don’t know anything about feminism, gosh!” Love her or hate her, Ariana is furthering the discussion in the right direction.

Now, all that being said… I still think Ariana needs an attitude adjustment in general.

PS… I think Ariana was being attacked by crazy 1Ders and that’s why she’s specifically talking about friendship-versus-romance after being seen out with Niall Horan. Ah, I think the same thing happened to Betty Friedan. All of the great feminist manifestos begin with crazy 1Ders.
