Notice, with

Hi everyone.

1) "I hadn't noticed that I got sunburned until I took a shower."

"I didn't notice that I got sunburned until I took a shower."

Are both of these correct?

2) Emma Watson said once in an interview:" Feminism is not a stick with which to beat other women with." Isn't the second 'with' redundant?

Thank you!

Yes, but you could also say 'with which' is redundant, too.

There's nothing wrong with "Feminism is not a stick to beat other women with".
