Twitter appalled by Kareena Kapoor Khan's warped definition of feminism

Kareena Kapoor Khan, who will soon be seen alongside Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania in Veere Di Wedding, says she is not a feminist and believes in equality.

At the music launch of the film, Kareena was asked about her idea of feminism, to which she promptly responded, “I believe in equality. I wouldn’t say I am a feminist, I would say I am a woman and above all, I am a human being. I am also as proud to be known as Saif Ali Khan’s wife, as I am to be Kareena Kapoor. So that is just the way I am.”



And we're just a tad bit confused, like the rest of the world. The Omkara actor has been mercilessly trolled on Twitter over head-scratching comments.

"I believe in equality but I'm not a feminist" says Kareena Kapoor. The number of errors in this one sentence is mindblowing. I'm gonna go nap

Reporter to Kareena Kapoor when asked about her idea of feminism and if she is one-
Kareena: Well, I believe in equality. I won’t say I’m a feminist. I’d say that I’m a woman. And above all, I’m a human being.
Me: Achcha, aisa kya? Humko toh pata hi nahin tha!

It's 2018 and we have a Kareena Kapoor say, 'I believe in equality of genders, but I am not a feminist'. How long before women in positions of influence educate themselves? Is that really too much to ask!

Being a #feminist means believing in and fighting for EQUALITY. The goal of #feminism is "to define, establish, and achieve political, economic, personal, and social equality of sexes." (Wiki) Kareena Kapoor definitely needs to have a better understanding of the term. https://t.co/L8zyWqvhoJ

All the pseudo feminists have their eyes on stalks with Kareena's statement- are clamoring to change their stand into the now rendered fashionable one by Saif's missus who's a Khan and she is not a feminist! "I'm Not a Feminist, I Believe in Equality": https://t.co/7uMxwH9DCC

Feminist : My life my way. We have rights to express ourselves regardless of whether it is right or wrong.

Kareena : I believe in equality.

Feminist : 👇
