In an interview with Redbook magazine, Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting has been asked if she considers herself a feminist, and the "Big Bang Theory" star was quoted as saying "no." Her response has sparked some backlash on several media outlets and social media sites resulting to Kaley's apology on photo-sharing site, Instagram.

"Is it bad if I say no? It's not really something I think about," Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting said during the interview, as quoted by The Independent. "Things are different now, and I know a lot of the work that paved the way for women happened before I was around... I was never that feminist girl demanding equality."

"But maybe that's because I've never really faced inequality," she added. "I cook for Ryan five nights a week: it makes me feel like a housewife; I love that. I know it sounds old-fashioned, but I like the idea of women taking care of their men. I'm so in control of my work that I like coming home and serving him. My mom was like that, so I think it kind of rubbed off."

Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting's comments were heavily criticized on social media causing the 29-year-old actress to apologize via an Instagram post explaining her side of the story, as said by The Hollywood Reporter.

"In my Redbook article, some people have taken offense to my comments regarding feminism- if any of you are In the "biz" you are well aware of how words can be taken out of context," Kaley wrote. "I'm completely blessed and grateful that strong women have paved the way for my success along with many others. I apologize if anyone was offended. Anyone that truly knows me, knows my heart and knows what I meant."

On Monday, in an interview for Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting's upcoming film, "The Wedding Ringer," the actress explained that her comments were taken out of context, CHRON reported.

"[I feel lucky] to have a career, really build myself as an independent woman... be able to serve my husband and have a family," she said and added that she never intended to offend anyone with her comments, "But it happens and I'm really sorry."

Regardless of how Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting's comments were misinterpreted, feminism is not a competition over who can give the best sound bite. As said by Leighton Meester in an interview with B-93.7′s Broadway Electric Barnyard on Dec. 30, feminism should not be "some sort of sensational news item," instead it's something "people should say about themselves."
