BumbleBizz Gives Women the Reins

Though it’s the 21st century, typical dynamics between men and women are still perceived as men being the aggressors and women as submissive, which is exactly what Bumble is trying to change in all areas.

We’ve previously known Bumble as a female empowered dating app allowing users to mutually connect with people in their area. For those who might need some assistance in building their personal brand, however, Bumble is here to help.

Bumble is soon to launch BumbleBizz, which allows users to create a professional profile, existing separately from any previous dating profile. Users can include what industry they work in, information about their current job, education, and more. With user’s geographical information and a unique algorithm, companies and induvials will match based on compatibility.

Though it’s the 21st century, typical dynamics between men and women are still perceived as men being the aggressors and women as submissive, which is exactly what Bumble is trying to change in all areas. One of their selling points is only allowing the female to message any male connections first, and this strategy still stands with BumbleBizz. According to Forbes, CEO and founder Whitney Wolfe said, “When there’s a chance to level the playing field, we’re going to take it every time.”

“It’s interesting, because there’s this age-old question of, ‘What do women want, what makes women tick?’ Well, it seems obvious – put a woman in charge and she will show you. And I think that is what we are beginning to see happen with apps like Bumble”, said Wolfe according to The Guardian.

So fellow feminists, what do you think?

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

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.
