abstract A modern feminist meditates on prototypical female figures and their contribution to the feminist social justice movement. The prototypical female figure is analysed from the perspective of behaviour through the lens of socialisation, particularly in terms of what society deems to be acceptable female behaviour. Historically, women are encouraged to be gentle, kind, and demure. Society rewards these submissive and passive behaviours with the label of true femininity: being a 'lady'. Unfortunately, the stereotypes that feminism aims to dismantle are the very qualities it is measured against because feminist women are still asked to conform to this feminine behaviour, lest they be called Angry Feminists. The author analyses their identity as an Angry Feminist, a common label used in online and real-life discussions about what a feminist is, the notion that there are different types of feminists, as well as which 'type' of feminist has the most impact. Even though personal experience and conventional wisdom both agree that more flies are caught with honey, is limiting feminist rhetoric to the constraints of being socially pleasing not an anti-feminist act in itself? The Angry Feminist is an archetype that is immediately portrayed in a negative light and often presumed to be man-hating, hairy and unwillingly but terminally single, or at least without a ‘cis-het’ male partner. This characterisation of the Angry Feminist is a direct contradiction of the prototypical female figure and femininity that society accepts and encourages, in other words someone motherly, patient and ‘nice’. How then, can an Angry Feminist also be feminine? The Angry Feminist has virtues and shortfalls, but it carries considerable social stigma – some say this persona does more harm than good. However, gentle corrections do not trend on Twitter, and if masculinity is allowed to be angry for banal reasons like rugby scores, then so should feminists for social justice issues like equality.

愤怒的女权主义者

摘要 一位现代女权主义者思考典型的女性形象及其对女权主义社会正义运动的贡献。通过社会化的视角，从行为的角度分析典型的女性形象，特别是在社会认为可以接受的女性行为方面。从历史上看，女性被鼓励要温柔、善良和端庄。社会用真正女性气质的标签来奖励这些顺从和被动的行为：成为“女士”。不幸的是，女权主义旨在消除的刻板印象正是它所衡量的品质，因为女权主义女性仍然被要求遵守这种女性行为，以免她们被称为愤怒的女权主义者。作者分析了她们作为愤怒女权主义者的身份，一个常见的标签，用于在线和现实生活中关于女权主义者是什么的讨论，有不同类型的女权主义者的概念，以及哪种“类型”的女权主义者影响最大。尽管个人经验和传统智慧都同意更多的苍蝇被蜂蜜捉住，但将女权主义言论限制在社会愉悦的约束本身不是一种反女权主义行为吗？愤怒的女权主义者是一种原型，它立即被描绘成负面的，通常被认为是讨厌男人、多毛、不情愿但最终单身，或者至少没有“cis-het”男性伴侣。愤怒的女权主义者的这种特征与社会接受和鼓励的典型女性形象和女性气质直接矛盾，换句话说，就是一个慈母、耐心和“善良”的人。那么如何，愤怒的女权主义者也可以是女性吗？愤怒的女权主义者有优点也有缺点，但它带有相当大的社会污名——有人说这个角色弊大于利。然而，温和的纠正在 Twitter 上并不流行，如果允许男子气概因为橄榄球比分等平庸的原因而生气，那么女权主义者也应该因为平等等社会正义问题而生气。
