I rarely, if ever, quote, but she speaks my words and thoughts on the defining of being. and from her mouth, one of experience and femininity, it echoes a thousand times more powerful than mine (the photo links back to her)

“…In further regards to feminism, I reject it for multiple reasons. Firstly, it’s too much of a loaded term that has too many loaded associations for me to feel like it adequately describes how I view myself and the world. Secondly, I don’t like how it so often marginalizes men and their issues. I really don’t feel a gender gap personally- I see men and women as intrinsically equal (whether or not they uphold that by their words & behaviors is another story), and thus the issues that face one gender are also ones that the opposite gender needs to face” -Nicole Vaunt
