Amber Rose is embracing the challenge of raising her sons, Sebastian, 9, and Slash, 3, with an enlightened perspective on feminism and equality. Speaking candidly on Emily Ratajkowski’s podcast, High Low with EmRata, Rose shared her open conversations about her past as a stripper and her current work on OnlyFans. "My sons are feminists," she proudly declared. "It just means equality."
The model and activist is determined to instill these values early, fearing misinformation from social media if she doesn't. Her candid approach has already paid off, as Sebastian has demonstrated understanding and support of women’s rights among his peers.
Amber recalled a moment when Sebastian stood up for her after a friend commented on her OnlyFans account. "Sebastian was like, 'Bro you can’t say that, like, you have to let a woman do what she wants with her body,'" she shared, moved by her son's response. Rose believes in nurturing freedom of expression within her household, balancing creativity with respect.
"When it comes to women, you have to let women do what they need to do to support their families," she explained to her sons.
From discussing her stripper past to the realities of OnlyFans, Rose has opted for a nurturing yet straightforward method of communication. She emphasizes the need for her kids to understand and respect women's autonomy.
Beyond her home, Amber Rose continues to advocate for women's rights through movements like the Los Angeles-based SlutWalk, which she organized to combat rape culture and slut-shaming. Her experiences with being "slut-shamed" have informed her resolve to challenge patriarchal standards head-on.
"As women, unfortunately, a lot of things are out of our hands," Rose remarked in 2022, reflecting on the continuous fight against sexist norms. The 39-year-old mother of two is not shy about her body positivity journey, embracing both its changes and perceived flaws.
Rose's unapologetic stance on self-acceptance and societal change continues to inspire, as she encourages women everywhere to uphold their autonomy and embrace their true selves.
