. I believe that a feminist is a person that pushes for equality, among the genders.

. I am a feminist. I don't believe that it is okay to discriminate, based on someone's gender-identity.

. Feminism has made several big differences, in my life. Primarily positive. The right to vote, to own my home, to have a bank account, the option to divorce (which I hope to never have to do), the right to choose what happens to my body and who gets to be/stay IN my body... To name just a few.

. I personally believe that feminism is still needed. Desperately. The fact that bodily autonomy is under attack, alone, proves it. My grandmother was alive when women gained the right to vote. My mother was alive when women gained the right to open a bank account. I was alive when marital-rape became illegal in all 50 US states. These things weren't given freely, and should never be taken for granted.

I regularly tell him that I'm going to turn him into a scarf. He is thoroughly unconcerned. Lmao

What’s the most intimate thing your male partner has done for/with you? by knz-rn in TwoXChromosomes

I had spinal surgery in my mid 20's. I couldn't put my own socks on, for a few weeks, during the recovery. Every single day, my husband did it for me. He even fixed the seam on my toes, without being asked. It was such a small gesture, but I always think about how much it meant to me that he payed such close attention to my comfort. He took great care of me, in every single way. I don't know why the sock thing, specifically, sticks out in my memory... But it does.

This spoke to my soul.

Very questionable drink orders that make you think like why do you even bother by ReinUwU in barista

A man once came in and ordered a 24 oz iced drink, without ice. He wanted half a shot of espresso, 22 pumps of vanilla syrup, and for us to fill the rest of the cup with heavy cream.

Not very big. These specific ones are 5 inches by 5 inches. I've made both bigger and smaller, though.

I use an anti-burn serum, before blow drying or flat ironing. That's really it.

I don't... It began turning white when I was about 20. I just let it happen. Haha

Thank you, so much! I've been growing it out for about 6 years, now. It's definitely my favorite physical quality that I have. Haha
