Women...Time to Awaken to Your Power; Others Will Follow Your Lead
“IT IS OFTEN SAID THAT THE FIRST SOUND WE HEAR IN THE WOMB IS OUR MOTHER’S HEARTBEAT. ACTUALLY, THE FIRST SOUND TO VIBRATE OUR NEWLY DEVELOPED HEARING APPARATUS IS THE PULSE OF OUR MOTHER’S BLOOD THROUGH HER VEINS AND ARTERIES. WE VIBRATE TO THAT PRIMORDIAL RHYTHM EVEN BEFORE WE HAVE EARS TO HEAR. BEFORE WE WERE CONCEIVED WE EXISTED IN PART AS AN EGG IN OUR MOTHER’S OVARY. ALL THE EGGS A WOMAN WILL EVER CARRY FORM IN HER OVARIES WHILE SHE IS A FOUR- MONTH-OLD FETUS IN THE WOMB OF HER MOTHER. THIS MEANS OUR CELLULAR LIFE BEGINS IN THE WOMB OF OUR GRANDMOTHER.

10 Feminist Books About Dating
Let's start with stating something most of us probably already know—feminism is about equality. Plain and simple as that. It's not about one gender being better than the other, it's not about hating men unfairly, it's not women wanting to take over the world and have things better than anyone else; it's simply about creating true equality between genders. If you've seen more extreme examples of people claiming to be feminists and putting the other gender down excessively, please keep an open mind and remember that true feminism is just about equality.

10 Misogynist Sites You Need to Know
Welcome to the “manosphere,” the man cave of the internet, where men engage in online communities, converse in forums and publish articles to share their take on anti-feminist beliefs. The men who participate in these groups often label themselves as the victim and charge women as the enemy. A popular example includes men who identify as involuntary celibates (incels), “red pillers” and pick up artists. Incels angrily blame women for not wanting to engage in intimate relationships with them and consider their denial to be an act of crime. It’s a flawed perception as these men feel it is a woman’s responsibility to cater to their desires. Belief systems like these make up the core of misogynist online groups that in turn lead to violent acts—such as Elliot Rodger who killed six people at Isla Vista before killing himself. Cyberspace is fertile ground when it comes to starting a movement and we must use it for good. Following the crimes committed by Rodger, additional online groups and misogynist sites have continued to pop up glorifying his acts, demeaning women, and spreading hatred against women in general.

Books Written by All of the First Ladies
It appears the memoirs of the First Lady began with Lady Bird Johnson. Since then, every first lady, with the exception of Pat Nixon, has written her memoirs. Some of them, as you will see, have also written other books as well as their memoirs. There were, of course, few before Mrs. Johnson that wrote their memoirs.
