Hey Girl, Equality is Sexy: The Badass Chick Behind ‘Feminist Ryan Gosling’ On Her New Book

You’re a black woman, spreading the message of feminism through the face of a white male. Is that weird?

Doing it from this point of view was intentional. I mean, if I was just picking actors I was attracted to, it would have been Feminist Idris Elba. But part of the fun for me was replicating this trope from a younger white guy who’s not identified as a feminist, coming from the voice of a black feminist. In the beginning, a lot of people didn’t get that that was part of the joke.

If you’re in NYC — don’t forget the book party is tonight.

Hey girl. Reading is so sexy.

OH MY GOD HOW DID I MISS THIS.

And, Mohonohey, how are you going to come up with these while I’m gone?!

This is bullshit. (The not doing interviews part.)

thank you, chris mohonohey.

though i’m not sure this makes him a bad feminist.

Proof that we’re in a Ryan Gosling bubble.

“At this rate, theoretically, by 2094 every single Tumblr will be Ryan Gosling-based.”

Also: Public Service Announcement: Feminist Ryan Gosling got a book deal. Tumblr asked Ryan Gosling’s (publicist) if he’d do a phone interview with us about his memedom. Publicist said no. STORYBOARD WONT STAND FOR THIS!

msnbc:

Just when Ryan Gosling couldn’t get any better, he did. The actor apparently saved a British woman from getting hit by a taxi in New York on Tuesday.

“Ryan Gosling grabbed me away from a taxi…He did not say ‘hey, girl.’ He said ‘hey, watch out!’”
