Celebrate women

[katina]

Today March 8th. is The International Women´s Day.

Let´s share biographies, achievements, small stories, a photo or an anonymous picture, a quote or a poem of a well known or unknown woman.


"The story of women's struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights" Gloria Steinem

I appreciate the women who know they are women and aren't afraid to show it. The ones who go to a real effort to choose the right perfumes, clothes, makeup and shoes. The ones who embrace their femininity and by just being themselves, it drives us men wild! Us men really do appreciate the effort and skill involved in this. It's art. It's magic! Don't be a man, be a lady. Owwwwww!

I can understand that completelly. I don't think it's unfeministic to think that gender specific things are attractive. It's only natural.
I love manly men. Sexually, that is.

The problem isn't which shoes some women chose to wear or what perfume they chose, it's discrimination in the workplace, less money for the same work, or even if a woman would feel forced to look a certain way to fit in or get a job, etc... If a woman choses pumps and corsettes cause SHE likes it, then it is femnistic.


Back to topic. I admire all sorts of women. If I'm gonna chose from the popular culture, then I can say I love Chrissie Hynde. But I love Pam Anderson too, even though they seem like complete contrasts of each other (contrast from each other? Preposition is impossible in other languages...)

Doesn't matter... There is nothing wrong with attraction towards things that are typical for a gender. I am attracted to manly stuff, but I am a feminist. We are different, but equally good :-)

Stand for what you believe in, whatever it is.

We celebrate women every day on this website..... especially in the picture forum.
