VAGINA GRRRLS: feminism and guilt

vaginagrrrls:

They say that the personal is political so here we go… My adventures with finding feminism and the guilt that came with it.

I had never considered myself a feminist and at the same time I had never even thought about it. To be honest I had never really defined myself as anything or had any…

Written by a beautiful woman who I met in high school. This is an excellent  post on feminism and most certainly encourages me to continue to call myself a feminist. 

I am Melissa and I too am a feminist. (Seriously follow this blog. It’s amazing especially because Dylan is bad-ass woman.)

While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, an officer was interrupted by a little boy about six years old. Looking up and down at his uniform, he asked, “Are you a cop?”
“Yes,” he replied and continued writing the report.“My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask the police. Is that right?”“Yes, that’s right,” he told him.“Well, then,” he said as he extended his foot towards the officer, “would you please tie my shoe?”

I tried to improve my photography skills/knowledge over the holidays. Most of my pictures were terrible, but I think these capture what my holiday truly consisted of; wine, friends, family and sitting on the couch. That’s what really matters anyways, right?
