Just on a break...


So... yeah. I have some ideas... I'll probably post next week... I might not post for a while after that... getting all my thoughts and ideas together. Hope you guys understand... it's hard to be so active on 3 blogs... and this one is probably the hardest to write and come up with ideas for... So I may end up just posting my Feminist posts on Scribbles About Life... but I think I'm going to see how I like this for now- keep it going and we'll see what happens. I still think now more than ever we really need to talk more about women and I think Women in Pop culture and knowing about female news all helps... but right now it's gong to be here... I'm just trying to figure it all out!

Hope everyone understands and I hope you're having an amazing weekend!

Byeee!

Why Catcalling Isn't Okay, and Why It's Okay Not To Like It

Today I went to the grocery store with my mom and grandmother and while we were checking out, some older man says “Ohhhh, Nice! Young Lady! Have Mercy," to me! I was really pissed!  The thing about catcalling though is that a lot of people kind of make it seem like its less of a big deal than it is and that women should be okay with it… And no one should have to be okay with being catcalled. Here are my reasons:   I wasn’t asking for it  A lot of times people shrug it off and say something like “Well if you dress like that you’re just asking for it.” Nope… I was wearing a sweater… a mock turtleneck actually, jeans, and a large peacoat. This isn’t any different than how I normally dress. I shouldn’t have to modify my dress for my safety… also I’m not sure how I could exactly be wearing anything more reserved. It’s a striped sweater with a slouchy turtleneck… I definitely wasn’t asking for it.  I was wearing makeup… but that’s another thing I do every da...

Feminish Reviews- 13 Reasons Why (TV Show) *Spoilers*

I thought that the Netflix series based on the book 13 Reasons Why did a great job of showing a lot of different problems that are hard to deal with for girls or for parents... and there were some very disturbing scenes that I believe critics have been insulted by...but I thought it was a good series with a lot of good character development and multi-layered characters... which is a word I think I just made up- but that's something refreshing to see in a teen drama. I've never been through a lot of the stuff that Hannah has been through in the show... but they still made her very relatable. The feeling she has that no one likes her- that is a very real thing that I've thought of often... the paranoia that everyone is looking at her and laughing at her... that is very real. All of her little joys but then in the end no one was listening to her and she couldn't get the help that she needed... that's upsetting and although I haven't really been through anything l...

Feminsit Movie Review- Amelie

So in March I think I'm going to try to watch a different movie every night... and if I think there's a feminist message in it- or if it was important to pop culture for women... I'll write about it! I'll start off with Amelie. I didn't really know what this movie was about... I just knew that it was in French, I thought it looked like a love story... and from the previews it looked beautiful and interesting. And I was right... kinda. What I thought was powerful about this movie from a feminist standpoint was that, even though it was a love story... that wasn't the focus of the movie at all. The focus was mostly on a strange girl that kept to herself most of the time and had a vivid imagination... even as an adult. Although she was quiet and didn't really interact with people... Amelie is quite a strong character. If she doesn't like someone, she'll do something about it right away and create a certain sense of justice. In contrast- if she does...
