I am a modern-day feminist: Beyonce

London: Pop star Beyonce Knowles says women should be able to dote on their husbands and children and can still call themselves feminists.

The 31-year-old singer, who will be appearing on the cover of the May issue of a fashion magazine in a midriff-baring top and sequined pencil skirt, said she is a modern-day feminist, reported Daily Express. "Why do you have to choose what type of woman you are? Why do you have to label yourself anything? I`m just a woman and I love being a woman. If you`re attractive then you can`t be sexy, and you can`t be intelligent? What is all of that?... I don`t know (if I`d call myself a feminist). "That word can be very extreme. But I guess I am a modern-day feminist. I do believe in equality, and that we have a way to go and it`s something that`s pushed aside and something that we have been conditioned to accept. But I`m happily married. I love my husband," she said. PTI
