When the hashtag #FeministsAreUgly started trending on Twitter yesterday, many women took to the social media site to show their disgust with the misogynists who popularized this mean and petty phrase.

Amidst a back-and-forth about what feminism really is and how women's looks should not be involved in the equation, some women appropriated #FeministsAreUgly to post selfies of themselves.

Using the hashtag, the women proved that those who started the hashtag aren't just entirely misinformed, their claims are super inaccurate.

Below are some of the best responses to #FeministsAreUgly. And for the record, we think that everyone who responded to this is beautiful — both inside and out.
