Many feminists believe equal opportunity improves life chances for women. However a feminist might end up saying to a sexist, “No, equal opportunity is not you sometimes doing the dishes and expecting to be thanked for it,” thus illustrating the need for feminism.

What is equal opportunity?

“Equal opportunity refers to the policy of giving everyone the same opportunities for employment, pay, and promotion, without discriminating against particular groups.” — Collins Dictionary

What is an ally?

“If you describe someone as your ally, you mean that they help and support you, especially when other people are opposing you.” — Collins Dictionary

Who is Noonoouri?

“Noonoouri is a cartoony, 19-year-old fashionista hailing from Munich, Germany. She has worked with most of the top brands in the fashion industry and continues to wow consumers with her unique look.” — virtualhumans.org

Noonoouri is a digital character. Warner Music Central Europe has given her a record deal.

Noonoouri was created by CGI influencer (not a real job), Joerg Zuber. Brother Zuber, showing his commitment to his creation, also decided how she should walk. Wearing high heels, essential.

For her debut single, ‘Dominoes,’ Warner Music Central Europe chose not to employ…. What are they called again? It’s on the tip of me tongue. They’re over half the population. Oh, that’s it. Women. So, instead of using women as singer and songwriters, Warner Music Central Europe chose men.

Her debut track was written and recorded by “talented songwriters and musicians”, the company said.

According to the Press Association, the writers and singers will receive royalties and publishing splits just like for any traditional song.

Well, that’s alright then.

Feminism and womanly stuff can be very complicated. However, luckily for me, a very wise person once said, “It is a truth universally acknowledged that everything is shit easy to understand when reduced to multiple choice with no wrong answers.”

The Question: Why is Noonoouri not an existential threat to women?

The Answers:

(A). Reality Bites.”

Noonoouri has posed alongside reality star Kim Kardashian.

(B). A Winning Formula

Noonoouri has posed with Formula 1 racer and social activist Lewis Hamilton.

(C). “A Class Act.”

Noonoouri has posed alongside American actress Zendaya.

(D).Model Citizen.”

Noonoouri has posed with supermodel, humanitarian and advocate Gigi Hadid.

(E). “Teamwork makes the dream work”

Dude. Behind every great woman there’s a man. Literally.
