According to Hedi Slimane, the best way to celebrate International Women's Day 2008 was to photograph Kate Moss: a flat-chested, vacant, wealthy, drug-using failure as a mother. One of the prostitution, oh I mean fashion, industry's biggest names...
Liberation for women, eh? That photoshoot (along with all other fashion industry thiiinnngsss) is a complete regression when it comes to female emancipation. So, you're using your body and your face to make money by selling a product... You play on other women's insecurities to get them to buy this product... You play on men's fantasies of the perfect fuckpig to get them to buy this product... And you're a strong female, HOW?!?!?! You are a product built by men to sell - you are a slave - you are a prostitute. Using sex to sell things is disgusting. I officially hate the fashion industry. I will no longer enjoy fashion magazines or appreciate the false beauty of these dumb bitches.
This is one of the biggest insults to the International Women's Day campaign and to Amnesty International's campaign to end violence against women. Instead of taking pictures of this stupid old whore, maybe Hedi could have donated time and/or money to raising awareness or even getting involved with any of the following:
- Safe schools for girls across the world
- Parvin Ardalan being banned from leaving Iran to collect her feminist prize
- Women in Zimbabwe trying to stay alive whilst providing for their families as economic and social conditions worsen
- Women in the Middle East and Asia beaten, arrested and killed for trying to defend their rights as humans
The fucking list goes on & on!
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY 2008.
REAL WOMEN? PLEASE, NOW.
