Thought Emma Watson couldn’t get any more perfect? WRONG.
The 24-year-old has studied at Oxford and Brown universities. She’s a qualified yoga teacher. Last year, she delivered a kick-arse speech at the UN. And of course, she’s also Hermione freaking Granger.
See Emma’s UN speech here: This will make you fall in love with Emma Watson.
And her latest triumph is just another example of how damn ace she is: Emma has taken to Twitter to promote the #HeForShe campaign, which aims to inspire men to fight for women’s rights.
And she had the most flawless response for a young fan whose sexist dad told her women couldn’t become engineers:
Sexist dad: 0. Emma Watson and girls everywhere: 1.
Emma is a proud feminist and has been using her fame to campaign for women’s rights and to encourage other girls and women to achieve their goals.
For more: Emma Watson has the right to speak without being told to die.
During her UN speech, she questioned why the term ‘feminism’ had become a dirty word:
I decided that I was a feminist and this seemed uncomplicated to me. Apparently I’m among the ranks of women whose expressions are seen as too strong, too aggressive, isolating and anti-men, unattractive even. Why has the word become such an uncomfortable one? For the record, feminism by definition is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.
We salute you, Emma. You really are the brightest witch of your age.

I would say that she can't be a engineer (sic) because her grammar sucks!
That tweet sounds like a total setup.
