“Game of Thrones” actress Maisie Williams appeared in a Twitter ad Monday for the pro-abortion group NARAL, saying if you are not a feminist, you are a sexist.
The ad, which was retweeted by MoveOn.org, shows a picture of the 18-year-old actress.
“We should stop calling feminists ‘feminists’ and just start calling people who aren’t feminist ‘sexist’ — and then everyone else is just a human. You are either a normal person or a sexist,” Maise Williams says in the ad.

The actress quote stems from an interview she did with Entertainment Weekly earlier this month when she was asked if the character she plays is a feminist. Her answer: “I didn’t even know what a feminist was. And then someone explained it to me.”
“And I remember thinking, Isn’t that just like everyone,” she said. “And then I realized everyone is not a feminist, unfortunately.”
