The awesome way strangers are responding to one terribly sexist ad

We’re more than a little disturbed by the following sexist ad that mysteriously appeared in a Toronto subway recently, courtesy of the anti-feminist group, “A Voice For Men.”

Instagram user Andrew Cameron, who took a picture of the above ad and posted it, labeled the ad “#misogyny disguised as #activism.” We agree. It’s disheartening to see such hostility focused in the direction of gender equality.

That said, what cheers us up is that the Instagram user @spaced_marked_feminist, documented an anonymous feminist putting up her own poster in response to that hurtful subway ad. The response poster asks the question, “How is feminism working out for you?” with a cup of pens provided for people to respond.

This made my day. I walked into the Delaware entrance at Ossington station and was greeted by this beautiful response to the anti-feminist “ad”/piece of garbage that was displayed a few days ago. Whoever put this here I want to thank you! And thanks for leaving a cup of pens so people can write their awesome answers to your question! #feminism #toronto #feministsubway #feminismisforeverybody #feministasfuck #feministpride #weneedfeminism #yay #mademyday @acamofficial

People responded to the question, citing everything from their wonderful mothers and marriages to their sense of self-respect.
