Am I the only one who read that headline and thought "an art teacher told a student to dial down the feminism ? An art teacher ? Bullshit they did"

Nice art but the backstory is utterly fake

    You do know that some art teachers are pricks, right?

    It can also be that the art teacher is perfectly fine with feminism but feels it is overpowering other themes. Dialling it down can be a valid criticism. You catch more flies with honey and all that.

    The response with this artwork is excellent though. It's a piece specifically about feminism, so no need to dial anything down. It makes a point and is beautiful to look at. I'm not a big fan of art that uses text to make a point but I think here it serves a useful purpose and it wouldn't have the same effect without text.

    I knew a highschool art teacher who woulds give any female student more then 80% because "women already get everything they want."

    Your lack of real world experience is showing.
