The Wrap

Contrary to popular belief, gender inequality does exist, but not in the way that you would think. As Donald Trump so eloquently pointed out in his speech last Wednesday, women have something that men just don’t have: the Woman Card. Not only is this Woman Card the ticket to Hillary Clinton’s political success thus far in the presidential race, but women have been reaping benefits from their women cards for centuries.

Unfair? You be the judge: here are some things that women get with their Woman Cards that men don't.


The Wage Gap

Because apparently when female employees flash their Woman Cards, employers see a 25 percent off coupon on their paychecks.

The Pink Tax

With the Woman Card comes pink and unnecessarily gendered products. Who cares if said products are suspiciously more expensive than the products aimed towards men? They're so cute!

Luxury Items

Women with vaginas are just rolling in luxurious menstrual products. We don't actually need them, we just buy them for the fun of it!


Dress Codes

Apparently the Woman Card makes us such naturally beautiful, sensual creatures that the mere sight of our exposed knees or collarbones are able to send men into a frenzy.


Free Drinks

Show the bouncer your Woman Card along with your ID at a bar and free drinks will practically be thrust into your hands, even if you don't want them!

Open Doors

I don't even remember how to open a door by myself anymore, they can just sense my Woman Card from ten feet away and automatically open in front of me.

Free Compliments

Ladies, you know what I mean. You’re walking down the street, minding your own business, when a nice man hollers something sweet and uplifting at you, like “Nice jugs!” or “Ayyy baby girl lemme hit that!” Just like that, your whole day is made! Thanks, Woman Card!

Children

We all know that with every Woman Card comes the desire to stay at home and raise children, so employers give women slower tracks to promotions and less and less pay with every child they do have, making it easy for them to justify staying at home. Besides, even if a woman does choose to continue working, the kind people in her life will ask, "But, if you're working, who is going to take care of your children???" showing that they are just as concerned about them as she is. How sweet!


Jealous yet? Here: get your own Woman Card.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
