The "Real" Issue

As I mentioned yesterday, Friday was a day full of inspiring women, one of which being Caryn Franklin, one of the founders of All Walks. I wanted to write a response about an issue that was brought up with Caryn, about the use of phrases like "Real Women", or more specifically to this talk, the comment was made about the phrase "Life-size".

One International Women's Day, 2 Inspiring Ladies!

I know I'm a little late to the party here, but a weekend without a laptop and playing big sis to my 2 year old brother took priority (and how couldn't it? He's just so damn cute!). Despite this, International Women's Day is a holiday I hold close to my heart. As a self-proclaimed feminist I feel it's my duty to keep flying the flag for women, and argue with those who say that feminism is not needed in this day and age. We still are underpaid, we still live in a mans world, and we still go through trials and tribulations daily simply because of our gender.
