THE ONLY DOUGHNUTS ARIANA GRANDE AND HER MOM ARE LICKING NOWADAYS ARE THE DOUGHNUTS OF FEMALE EQUALITY AND WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT, SOCIETY!

Let's be real for a second. Ariana Grande and Gloria Steinem are probably not going to be mentioned in the same sentence anytime soon, unless that sentence is, “Although I have no concrete proof of this, I'm positive Gloria Steinem hates Ariana Grande."

I mean, there's nothing wrong with that. They fill different functions in society. Gloria speaks out on women's empowerment through action, and Ariana was an integral part of “Bang Bang.”

Their two paths don't need to meet because the world doesn't really need them to meet.

That may all be changing soon, though, as this past weekend featured Ariana and her mom, Joan Grande -- great mom name -- using their social media presences and celebrity statuses to speak out on gender inequality issues.

On Sunday morning, Joan -- once again, amazing mom name -- tweeted this picture showing a magazine stand with clearly marked men's and women's sections.

Ariana tweeted back at Momma Grande, who should really be named “Joan Venti.”
