“It’s so ludicrous now that females– now that we’re thought about equates to naturally, and are getting dealt with like– [now] we are worthy of all the awards. All the ladies we select require to be chosen for the positions we believe otherwise, the f– g patriarchy. That’s actually what they’re tweeting out that … ‘they made a film about the patriarchy and after that the patriarchy kept them down,'” Kelly stated, pointing out that stars in the movie did get praise.
