13 Fabulous Feminist GIFs
Bustle.com

When it comes to feminism, there's a million different definitions and approaches to a commitment against fighting oppression and understanding systemic inequalities and oppression. Last week I sought out feminist quotes that briefly and poignantly got down to the meaning of intersectionality and what it means to be an intersectional feminist and ally. This week I turn to an even more succinct medium than quotations-GIFs... Enjoy!

1.

The true meaning of intersectionality- memorialized in one GIF.

2.

Be still my pitter-pattering feminist heart, it's Consent Candy Hearts!!

3.

Thank God we have "tough" women like Senator Warren on Capitol Hall to fight for American democracy and civil rights.

4.

Take heart! Ms. Incredible is here. (AKA Elastigirl) Who says motherhood, feminism and being a heroine can't be the same thing?

5.

Another strong Hollywood female who doesn't let any man or Muppet boss her around. She's an inspiration to young piglets... err... girls for multiple generations!

6.

The embodiment of being a feminist ally—in one GIF! Let's lift each other up, we're not going to get anywhere until we do.

7.

Adichie's definition with Beyoncé's powerful stare - #powerful.

8.

This is one of my favorite feminist GIFs of all time!! Keep on smashing glass ceilings, you Wonder Women!!

9.

Back to the movies! Here's Katherine Hepburn in Adam's Rib keeping it real. If you love old movies, but hate the sexist tropes, Adam's Rib is the movie for you.

10.

Even the depths of the ocean are filled with feminists. ;)

11.

BTW who says feminists can't wear pink! A unforgettable classic!

12.

Speaking of feminist icons... All hail Rosie and the generation she represents who fought the good fight on the WWII homefront.

Keep on being your awesome feminist selves!!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
