To me feminism is about being conscious and aware of everything you say and every action you make. It is about watching your language, and not shaming any group of people, regardless of gender, class, ethnicity, weight, ability, religion, etc. It is about more than knowing your own fight against the heterosexual-white-man in power; that is, being aware that there are others who also struggle, if not more so, than yourself. It is about teaching and spreading knowledge and consciousness. It is about being active and proactive. Feminism is about taking a stand for humanity and calling bullshit where bullshit deserves to be called. Feminism is about finding your inner strength and power. It is about accepting and embracing every part of yourself, even if it takes baby-steps. Once you find your power through feminism, there is no one who can hold you back or tell you that you are incapable of anything. Feminism was my lifesaver. It taught me to be fearless. It taught me to be rowdy and unruly. It taught me to think for myself, and to take others into consideration. Feminism has opened my world to some of the most amazing people I would not have met through any other avenue. And to that I say thank you, feminism.
