tagged. This is a good thing. This is interesting. I’m going to define 5 things (tough) feminism has given me.

Well, number 1: Choice. What this means is I don’t feel beholden to anyone for my choices in life. Period.

Number 2: Community. There are many women out there with similar situations, similar experience. We find each other, someway, somehow. This is good.

Number 3: A chance to express individuality. Until recently this was unrealized by women.

Number 4: The ability to be. Period.

Number 5: The ability to have control over myself, over my body, over my situation, over my life. This is key to being a woman in today’s feminist experience.
