It takes just one hour, six minutes and 48 seconds before the average woman’s feet begin to feel the agony of being strapped into high heels, a study has found. And some can’t even make it that long — with 20 percent of women saying the pain kicks in after just 10 minutes.
“For some reason, feminism is seen as super anti: anti-men, anti-sex, anti-sexism, anti-everything. And while some of those antis aren’t bad things, it’s not exactly exciting to get involved in something that’s seen as so consistently negative.
The good news is, feminism isn’t all about antis. It’s progressive and—as cheesy as this sounds—it’s about making your life better. As different as we all are, there’s one thing most young women have in common: We’re all brought up to feel like there’s something wrong with us. We’re too fat. We’re dumb. We’re too smart. We’re not ladylike enough—stop cursing, chewing with your mouth open, speaking your mind. We’re too slutty. We’re not slutty enough.
Fuck that.
You’re not too fat. You’re not too loud. You’re not too smart. You’re not unladylike. There is nothing wrong with you.”Excerpt From: Valenti, Jessica. “Full Frontal Feminism.”
Egalitarianism is a useless ideology that panders to the idea that racism. homophobia, and sexism are over when they’re not, not even by a long shot. Egalitarians pride themselves in thinking everyone is equal despite not doing anything about social injustice. As long as racism, sexism, and homophobia are still rampant in society, simply thinking everyone is equal will accomplish nothing.
