Emma Watson was the target of sexism, slut-shaming and general online bullying after her Vanity Fair cover dropped on Wednesday.

Watson, who's professed many times and in many words that she is an unapologetic feminist, was caught in the crosshairs of a feminist debate after her half-topless photos for the magazine went live.

The "Beauty and the Beast" star has been vocal in supporting women for as long as we can remember, and even when The Fappening occurred, had sage advice for all of Twitter: "Even worse than seeing women's privacy violated on social media is reading the accompanying comments that show such a lack of empathy."

I can't take Emma Watson's brand of feminism seriously when she endorses products that can lighten skin. Soz.

@hijadepavlov Imagine if she actually showed the self-awareness and personal responsibility to say, "I've changed my stance" and apologized.

@LiberPatriot no, she complains that women are sexualised and then sexualises herself in her own work. Hypocrisy.
