Why "Define Woman" Is A Trap
It’s the new hip thing with the kids these days (if kids were middle age, fear mongers). Asking someone, typically a liberal, to “Define (a) Woman”. Many can sense the trap, knowing the person asking, usually a conservative (no matter how okay they swear they are with their gay cousin), is expecting one of two things; to trip yourself up trying to avoid describing a Cis Woman (more on the term in a second), or to say something they’ll misinterpret as being anti-trans. They did it before with gays, with women, with the disabled, with the non-White (they even did it with some White). It’s a trap; a trap so they can call out “gottem!”.

Why are Black Women LATE to the Femininity game?
Why are Black Women LATE to the Femininity game? That is, If they ever arrive at all… Black American Women are seen as masculine, undesirable, aggressive, rude, and unattractive. Why is that? Black men nowadays love to tell black women that they need to be more feminine. They say women of other racial backgrounds and ethnicities are softer and more feminine and much more desirable. Is there any truth to that? If so, why?

American Black Woman
There are many things about me that make me unique to my fellow counterparts, my sense of humor, my style of dress, and how I handle certain situations, however, the thing that makes me the most unique is being a black woman in America. Black women are as far down the list as you can get because of the labels that are placed upon us, like the angry black woman or loud and ghetto, these are things that could be true for some but not all. It’s not just how we act either it’s also how we represent ourselves whether it be the way we wear our hair to the type of clothing that we choose to dress in, we are looked at as less than because of it. Now here is where we really get down to it because we are looked at with so much animosity by not only other races and ethnicities but by our own as well with having to compete for jobs and resources. Being a woman is hard right now but being a black woman is even harder because we are looked at to be these strong independent women who can do it all and that may be true sometimes but not all the time and not always for the right reasons.

Shirley Chisholm, Catalyst of Change, Progressive Bad Ass
Before there was Hillary or Liz or Kamala, there was Congresswoman, civil rights activist, social reformer, and educator Shirley Chisholm. She broke through the formidable racial and gender barriers of the 1960s and 1970s and made it look easy.

Campus Rape Culture
Campus rape culture has become a topic of great concern over the years; concerning because “we know it exists” but “we can’t control it”. As per the statistics, one in every sixth woman on-campus experiences some sort of sexual violence or harassment every day, and with the stigma around the aspect and the victim-blaming practice, only some are able to build the courage to come out and talk about their violent experiences, however, over the level of exposure, this topic has gotten many women are coming out. So, the main question that starts to linger is; when it is such a talked about topic and with such high statistics of occurrence, what makes it so difficult to overcome, especially in North America? And to that my answer would be economic politics and the bases of radical feminism.
