Women's Rights (and lack there of)

Ladies, we need to think. No-- not think. We need to reflect. We need to reflect on the things we as women have worked so hard for. The things we have fought for. The things we stood for and still stand for today. We need to reflect on the words, the actions, the sacrifices, and the suffering of the women that fought for us in the past. We need to reflect on the women, both named and nameless, who

 changed history for us and allowed us to live the lives we are living today. We need to reflect on the strength, perseverance, determination, and anger that empowered them to take a stand, and that drove them to do the things they did. We need to reflect on who we are and what we want, what we deserve, and what we have earned as women.

Most importantly, we need to reflect on what has been said in regards to us as women. We need to reflect on the statements that have offended us as of recently. We need to reflect on the persons who will take all our hard work, all our efforts, and crush them. These MEN will ruin our progression, sending us back in time to fight the battles we have already won.
No one can take away your right to choose for yourself what your own body does, or does not do.
No one has the right to tell us "for every dollar a man earns, a woman earns 77 cents."
No one can redefine the word "rape" to mean a "method of conception".
No one can take away our liberties and assume that we will just sit back and allow it to happen.
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."

I don't know about you, Ladies, but I am definitely feeling inferior-- and I sure as hell never gave anyone my consent.

Take a stand.
Reflect.

Pass it on.
