Star of The Big Bang Theory Kaley Cuoco has come out and said she’s not a feminist because she likes to take care of her husband.
…Oh. Right.
The 29-year-old sitcom star married her husband, tennis player Ryan Sweeting, in 2013. And since then, she’s engaged in all types of non-feminist behaviour like cooking and cleaning. Because COOKING and CLEANING are only for HOUSEWIVES and WOMEN WHO SERVE THEIR HUSBANDS.
(Um, Kaley, we think you’re missing the point.)

Kaley spoke to Redbook magazine about her marriage and was blatantly asked if she was a feminist.
Terrible question aside, we’re most interested in her answer.
Is it bad if I say no? It’s not really something I think about. Things are different now, and I know a lot of the work that paved the way for women happened before I was around… I was never that feminist girl demanding equality, but maybe that’s because I’ve never really faced inequality.

Maybe it’s because she earns $1 million per episode, maybe it’s because she doesn’t realise that we are still such a long way away from equality. Whatever the case, Kaley Cuoco ain’t a feminist, and she’s going to keep taking care of her man.

The oft-repeated implication that you can't believe in equality if you don't identify as a feminist is as stupid as the oft-repeated statement that you can't have morality if you're not a Christian.
You can have morality without carrying the baggage of organised religion and you can believe in equality and rights without carrying the bitter baggage of the modern feminist movement.
I'm a feminist. I like to take care of my husband. I expect him to take care of me too.
