A model and survivalist who hunts her own food and has a stash of 28 guns in case of an apocalypse has fiercely slammed 'useless' women who rely on men and can't 'look after themselves.'
Emily Rinaudo, who started hunting when she was only 12 years old, is on a mission to teach others how to become more self-sufficient.
With the world 'teetering on the edge of catastrophe,' she believes everyone should be prepared for the worst and know how the 'basics' to surviving should there be a natural disaster that leaves them fending for themselves.
The model, who has over 700,000 followers on Instagram, hit out at women who, in her opinion, 'act weak' and 'can barely cook a meal, let alone catch their own dinner.'
'I'm so fed up of hearing stories from women who can't look after themselves,' she scathed to Jam Press recently. 'They are superficial and obsessed with looking good.
'I can respect the desire to be attractive – especially since I'm a model – but you don't have to be useless just because you are pretty.
'I'm a survivalist and have been able to hunt my own food since I was a child.
'When the apocalypse hits, people are going to be relying on me for shelter and safety, not the other way around.'
She stressed the importance of learning 'basic things' like fishing, hunting, or finding shelter.
'Even most men today couldn't survive if something went down, they only know how to order UberEats,' she continued.
'These days, a lot of them have no idea how to do basic things like fish, hunt or find shelter.
'It's scary out there right now. If the internet were to shut down today and all the grocery stores were closed, what would you do?
'I don't want to rely on anyone, least of all a man. I'm not the damsel in distress.'
While speaking to the Daily Mail about it, Emily pointed out, 'During the COVID-19 pandemic, most couldn't even handle a simple change in the pace of life.
'Imagine being quarantined for 30 years, which is the half-life of some radioactive isotopes.'
She also shared the vital items that she believes everyone should have in their homes in case of an emergency.

'If you're prepping for an apocalypse or any kind of emergency, everyone should have a water filter straw and a large stainless steel knife,' she said.
'With just those two things, you can survive anywhere.'
In addition, Emily said she personally has a 'collection of firearms' as well as a gas mask, a Geiger counter - which detects radiation - and adult toys tucked away.
'Let's be honest, I don't need a man to survive,' she joked.
As for her biggest advice when it comes to what to do during an emergency situation, she recommended not trying to play the hero or helping other people - but instead, just focusing on yourself and your loved ones.
'One of my biggest survivalist tips is don't try to help anyone but yourself and your immediate family. At the end of the day, it's you versus the world,' she urged.
Emily grew up on the outskirts of South Florida and would often go hunting with her dad and brother during her childhood.
Now, she often gets up at the crack of dawn to track down a deer – which she shoots and skins herself – before enjoying a wild swim or fishing in the nude.
She loves challenging herself – even in dangerous situations, such as when she 'wrestles' alligators.
Emily, who owns 28 guns, regularly goes range shooting to top up her defense skills.
She added: 'Knowing I'll be able to shoot down whatever is coming at me makes me feel very powerful and safe.
'I love learning these things, especially when it comes to things that a man would typically do. I like being dirty and sweaty.'
She insisted to the Daily Mail that despite her large following online, she could care less about social media or the fashion industry and only models to make money to put towards building her 'dream bunker.'
'Modeling was a means to an end. I used it to make money to build my dream bunker,' she explained.
'Society cares about superficiality – so making myself beautiful for resources was all part of the plan.'
In the end, she hopes being so vocal about it will open other women's eyes to the importance of survival skills.
'I'm not hating on women – women are amazing and smarter than men when they really put their minds to something,' she concluded.
'I just wish more of them spent less time learning how to do their own nails and more time figuring out how to clean a gun or clean a fish.'
