I can’t use bright, light, cheery colours. For a moment I’m very happy with them but after three minutes I get bored. - Yohji Yamamoto

My friend just showed me this shirt. She bought it for her daughter. I need one for my girls too. I screamed when I saw it. It’s so awesome!
the only two women that actually did shit were Susan b Anthony and ammelia earheart.
Listen up, Fuckboy. I realize you’re some anti-feminist troll, but take a seat because I’m going to give you an education. All of these women “did shit”, not just Susan B. Anthony and Amelia Earhart.
Harriet Tubman was born a slave, beaten so badly that she suffered from epilepsy and severe headaches the rest of her life. Despite everything, she managed to escape slavery. “There was one of two things I had a right to,” she explained later, “liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other.” She created the Underground Railroad and went back to the South time and time again to rescue her family and many other slaves. She worked with Frederick Douglass and other abolitionists. Later in life she worked with the suffragettes, including Susan B. Anthony.
Sally Ride was a physicist and an astronaut. Not only was she the first woman in space, but she was the youngest person to ever travel to space at the time, and is still the youngest American ever to go to space. After her NASA career she was a professor of physics and the director of the California Space Institute. She co-founded a company in 2001 that creates entertaining science programs and publications for upper elementary and middle school students, with a particular focus on girls. She wrote 7 books about space that encouraged children to study science. She was also the first known LGBT astronaut.
Malala Yousafzai is a Pakistani woman who has fought tirelessly for female education. She’s also the youngest ever recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Due to her efforts to secure education for women, an Islamic terrorist group attempted to kill her on her way to school. The Taliban has also stated they want her dead. Yet, she’s continued her fight for the education of women and female children in Pakistan. She’s spoke to the UN and during a meeting with President Obama, she confronted him about his use of drone strikes in Pakistan. She’s done all this and she’s only 17.
Rosa Parks was an African American Civil Rights activist. She refused to obey orders to give up her seat on a bus, resisting segregation laws. Her defiance and the defiance of others led to the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which were important events in the Civil Rights Movement. She worked for civil rights and educational organizations for the rest of her life. She was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Congressional Gold Medal and was the first woman and second non-US government official to lie in honor in the Capital Rotunda.
These women did a lot, what exactly have you done? What are your accomplishments?
You go ahead and continue to sit in your mom’s basement, wearing your Meninist t-shirt, and trolling people on the internet. I’ll be over here raising the next generation of women who are going to get shit done and help make this world a better place.
Slight correction, Sally K Ride was the first US woman in space. Valentina Tereshkova was the first woman in space, her Vostok VI mission was June 16, 1963. Sally K Ride’s was 20 years and 2 days later on June 18, 1983.
With that, Ms Ride did a lot for not only feminism, but for the science community as mentioned.
