Musings and the like... But more importantly...vaginas. Fellow woman: Vaginas are wise, strong, powerful, complex, and mysterious...just like you. Embrace the strangeness, the beauty, and love it! Love you!

“We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller. We say to girls, ‘You can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful but not too successful, otherwise you will threaten the man.’ We teach females that in relationships, compromise is what a woman is more likely to do. We raise girls to see each other as competitors - not for jobs or accomplishments, but for the attention of men. We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings in the way boys are. We police girls. We praise girls for virginity but we don’t praise boys for virginity. We teach girls shame. Close your legs. Cover yourself. We make them feel as though by being born female, they are already guilty of something. And so girls grow up to be women who cannot say they have desire. Who silence themselves. Who cannot say what they truly think. Who have turned patience into an art form.”

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, “We Should All Be Feminists” (via brattybrows)

This is the type of stage pageantry that people pay hundreds to see. Imagine how long the costume designer took intricately put into making those dresses the people behind the scene are the true heroes of theater

“I don’t think I have rebelled against Latina culture. I have rebelled against those who try to make me warm tortillas for my brothers when they can warm them for themselves, I have rebelled against a patriarchal religion. I rebel against small mindedness in all ways and in every situation but those things are not an intrinsic part of Latina culture and I will fight tooth and nail against anyone who tries to make me feel like I’m less Xicana for not embracing the small-mindedness.” - Alice Bag, interview on 1/23/12
