艾玛·沃森呼吁性别平等

 

Watson's plea for men to join the fight for equal rights for women has sparked a flood of pledges across the world, including from fellow celebrities³ and politicians.

 

"I hope we can all finally change laws and mentalities⁴ in order to establish what is nothing more than common sense," Watson posted on her Twitter account on Tuesday.

 

Watson, 24, who rose to fame as Hermione in the Harry⁵ Potter movies, gave her first major speech as a United Nations Women's Goodwill⁶ Ambassador in New York on Saturday, launching the "HeForShe" campaign to unite men and women for gender equality.

 

The initiative urges men to join the fight against violence and discrimination of women within days more than 70,000 men and boys had signed online pledges, according to the HeForShe online active map on the campaign's website.

 

The target is to mobilise one billion men and boys over 12 months with an online map showing exactly where men sign up.

 

However, Watson's speech appears to have angered trolls on 4chan's b board who are now seeking retribution in the form of a smear⁷ campaign.

 

Setting up a countdown website that they have called EmmaYouAreNext, forum⁸ members have threatened to release nude photos of Watson.

 

They are also attempting to get #RIPEmmaWatson trending on Twitter and are posting photoshopped pictures of news sites suggesting that Watson has died.

 

The very basic Photoshopped photos they have produced already suggest that any nude photos would be similar crude fakes.

 

Earlier this month Ms Watson came to the defence of her friend Ms Lawrence after dozens of images showing the Hunger Games actress in various states of undress were leaked on 4Chan.

 

The actress tweeted : “Even worse than seeing women's privacy violated on social media is reading the accompanying comments that show such a lack of empathy.
