"All ladies: take a second to look in the mirror... Then tell yourself,

'I'm beautiful just how I am...'"

- Nova Giovanni

"Feminist" is NOT a Curse Word.

You don't need to cringe when I say, "I'm an editor for Sister Speak, a feminist magazine."

I won't jump down your throat every chance I get and hammer you with 'Women's Rights' chants.

Feminists simply believe in gender equality, women's rights, and the overall empowerment of women.

Being a feminist does NOT mean that I'm a lesbian, and it doesn't mean that I plan to take control of every relationship that I embark on.

In fact, as a religious woman, I plan to walk in my destiny and be the woman God has always called me to be. Called us to be.

Beautiful on the inside while continuously preserving my outward beauty.

Strong, yet Meek.

Efficient.

Virtuous.

Virtuous.

I AM a Virtuous Woman.

And as a Virtuous woman and a feminist, I seek to embrace my womanhood in every facet, from gaining a daily cognizance of my rights to falling in love with my vagina.

It's beautiful. Unique. Handcrafted by God, and makes me every bit of a woman.

I love my vagina.

I am a woman.

Feminists ought not be misconceived for their strength, and feared for their powerful impact on society, but rather respected.....

.....for their strength and powerful impact on society.
