At least that’s what she told the audience assembled for her keynote speech at the BlogHer 16 conference in Los Angeles on Friday.

These days, Kim says she doesn’t have any pets other than a few fish.

Kim revealed how she had always thought her family life was interesting, and there was never a boring moment. But if it’s up to North, the family is going to get a dog really soon. And so he’s really taught me how to become a little bit more private and I’ve taught him how to be a little bit more open and it really works for us.

While various definitions may be ascribed to the term and the semantics of it are often interpreted differently, at its most fundamental level, feminism means just one thing: a belief that there should be gender equality. Kim revealed that her shorter ‘do was actually a wig via her website on August 3 by writing, “I’ve been saying for SO long that I want to cut my hair, so the day before Kylie [Jenner’s] event for Kylie Cosmetics I chose to achieve the look a different way: a wig!” Although Kim said she doesn’t mind getting underestimated, she also understands how it could bother people if they were put in the same situation she is in.

The star – who is married to rapper Kanye West – said: “I hope they learn to understand they can do anything they want to do and to always be kind”.

Kardashian also talked about the perception that she overshares and agrees it’s mostly true.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians co-star shares her life freely on the show, her app and social media, but she said she does strive for some privacy when it comes to West and her kids.
