Women's Rights is noted by critics for its "feminist" tones.[2][8] Several songs are noted as "silly,"[2] "funny,"[8] and "comedy[ic]."[3] Bitch Media writer Bobby Moore claimed that songs from the album such as Tech Bro and Siri, Open Tinder "take aim at less-than-desirable men,"[2] and NPR reviewer Katie Presley cites the album's hits as addressing a "typically unsung set of freedoms vital to an equitable female experience."[5]
