Oh my god Samuel L Jackson did the “I am the one who knocks” monologue! This is too perfect.

This. Is. Epic.

The dancing scene at the end of The Mirror Has Two Faces always puts such a big smile on my face, it’s adorable!

Haven’t done this is a while.

My life has been so good in the past few months. Mainly because of my beautiful little girl, Rosebud.

She has changed my life in every way imaginable. Every morning, I wake up to this face waiting on me. She is my responsibility, and I thank God for that everyday. It amazes me how much I feel God’s love through her. I have had issues feeling and accepting love in the past, and God knew that Rosie would be the perfect way for me to get introduced to being “well loved”, as it is referred to at my new church.

I have started going to a new church, too. I love it! I can say that I now see how important it is to go to church and be around God. My paster calls the church “the wife”, which I find so interesting. I have always read that in scripture, but having it put into that perspective really made me learn a lot.

Speaking of wife, I have come to a point in my life where, while I like doing things on my own and being an independent person, I feel like I am ready to be someones other half. I don’t want to go out and get married tomorrow, but I want to be with whoever he is gonna be. But, I am gonna have to put in some work towards that. I need to find a way of being open about my feelings with a guy. I am almost 20, and I’ve never been on a proper date before, haha. I want that to change!

That being said, I can’t help but wonder if the only reason certain things haven’t happened for me is because I haven’t done anything about them. I have had feeling for a guy for a long time, and I know in my heart that there is more there for us. Maybe I’m wrong or maybe I just romanticize thing, but I just have this feeling. I just wonder whether or not I’m supposed to do about it. That’s where I am.

Why Society Still Needs Feminism

Because to men, a key is a device to open something. For women, it’s a weapon we hold between our fingers when we’re walking alone at night.

Because the biggest insult for a guy is to be called a “pussy,” a “little bitch” or a “girl.” From here on out, being called a “pussy” is an effing badge of honor.

Because last month, my politics professor asked the class if women should have equal representation in the Supreme Court, and only three out of 42 people raised their hands.

Because rape jokes are still a thing.

Because despite being equally broke college kids, guys are still expected to pay for dates, drinks and flowers.

Because as a legit student group, Campus Fellowship does not allow women to lead anything involving men. Look, I know Eve was dumb about the whole apple and snake thing, but I think we can agree having a vagina does not directly impact your ability to lead a
college organization.

Because it’s assumed that if you are nice to a girl, she owes you sex — therefore, if she turns you down, she’s a bitch who’s put you in the “friend zone.” Sorry, bro, women are not machines you put kindness coins into until sex falls out.

Because only 29 percent of American women identify as feminist, and in the words of author Caitlin Moran, “What part of ‘liberation for women’ is not for you? Is it freedom to vote? The right not to be owned by the man you marry? The campaign for equal pay? Did all that good shit get on your nerves? Or were you just drunk at the time
of the survey?”

Because when people hear the term feminist, they honestly think of women burning bras. Dude, have you ever bought a bra? No one would burn them because they’re freaking
expensive.

Because Rush Limbaugh.

Because we now have a record number of women in the Senate … which is a measly 20 out of 100. Congrats, USA, we’ve gone up to 78th place for women’s political representation, still below China, Rwanda and Iraq.

Because recently I had a discussion with a couple of well-meaning Drake University guys, and they literally could not fathom how catcalling a woman walking down University Avenue is creepy and sexist.
Could. Not. Fathom.

Because on average, the tenured male professors at Drake make more than the tenured female professors.

Because more people on campus complain about chalked statistics regarding sexual assault than complain about the existence of sexual assault. Priorities? Have them.

Because 138 House Republicans voted against the Violence Against Women Act. All 138 felt it shouldn’t provide support for Native women, LGBT people or immigrant women. I’m kind of confused by this, because I thought LGBT people and women of color were also human beings.
Weird, right?

Because a girl was roofied last semester at a local campus bar, and I heard someone say they think she should have been more careful. Being drugged is her fault, not the fault of the person who put drugs in her drink?

Because Chris Brown beat Rihanna so badly she was hospitalized, yet he still has fans and bestselling songs and a tattoo of an abused woman on his neck.

Because out of 7 billion people on the planet, more than 1 billion women will be raped or beaten in their lifetimes. Women and girls have their clitorises cut out, acid thrown on them and broken bottles shoved up them as an act of war. Every second of every day. Every corner of the Earth.

Because the other day, another friend of mine told me she was raped, and I can no longer count on both my hands the number of friends who have told me they’ve been sexually assaulted. Words can’t express how scared I am that I’m getting used to this.

Because a brief survey of reality will tell you that we do not live in a world that values all people equally and that sucks in real, very scary ways. Because you know we live in a sexist world when an awesome thing with the name “feminism” has a weird connotation. Because if I have kids someday, I want my son to be able to have emotions and play dress up, and I want my daughter to climb trees and care more about what’s in her head than what’s on it. Because I don’t want her to carry keys between her fingers at night to
protect herself.

Because feminism is for everybody, and this is your official invitation.
