International Feminism

Hey Readers!

 I was spending this morning having a browse on the Der Spiegel when I came across this article about the feminist group Femen.

 I like hearing about feminist movements in other countries, I find it both oddly comforting and upsetting.

 I just find it annoying that feminism is having to go to such extremes (and as the article points out, extremes that are being ignored) in order to basically say that sexism is wrong. Pretty much every other progressive movement that promotes equality in the 21st century gets good press and support. But feminism doesn't. It just goes to show that feminism is still definitely relevant and is still a cause worth fighting for.

EMPOWERMENT PLAYLIST

Hey Readers!

 Lately I've been getting my rampant feminist on. Much to the annoyance/amusement of my peers. I've also been lurving a little bit of music – probably because I can comprehend how great Haim is, unlike particle physics. So these are a few of my empowerment songs to make your life a little more empowered.
