James shared her post, writing "Even though I obviously can’t properly relate, this subtle societal misogyny really annoys me."
The 'Can We Dance' guitarist then explained how - while people are probably unaware - they're contributing to the issue.
Even though I obviously can’t properly relate, this subtle societal misogyny really annoys me. Most people don’t even realise they’re contributing to it, which is sad. Jungle Emily was brave, confident and inspiring. You did so much for yourself, but also for other girls too. 👍🏻 https://t.co/e4sm2jCJBY
