Holy Shit. Awesome. This Is The Price Of Your Woman Card

This Is The Price Of Your Woman Card

This card comes with an annual membership fee, explains Get Lit, an LA youth group that uses spoken word poetry.

Not that we have not been unaware of what the GOPers have been doing. Now it is coming out tenfold. Not sure who they hate more, still_one, the uppity black man or the uppity woman.

Us older feminists should be happy. We have a new wave coming!

I posted this above you.

When they said they were afraid to have a daughter. Afraid to have a son. It broke my heart.

We have always fought for our rights. People just never listened. We have fought for ever, August 18 1920. We were finally allowed to vote and fought long and hard for that. Many women suffered for that right.

I am just glad the younger generation woke up. They are the ones that need to carry it on. These women are doing it. I hope they continue to raise their voices.
