Stumbled upon a couple if blogs this week. Both curiously pertaining to prostitution. You can log off at this point , I understand. Anyways, sex work is a shit job in my opinion and benefits women nada. Admittedly there are a few former sex workers who claim it’s a job like any other. But it’s not, is it? Anyway maybe im just mad that they getting some.LOL

So last night i was flipping through channels and came a cross a doccie on women. It was a piece on feminism.A bunch of them started crying as this androgynous looking female delivered a speech about the current portrayal of women in magazines. I honestly thought WTF y'all are overeacting but then i caught myself and thought actually the backstage life of all that glamour models sell is pretty bleak.Women fall prey to sexual predators guised as photographers. Girls die DAILY from anorexia and other self hating body image related issues because of the pressure media and society as a whole puts on them.

And i started thinking, what if I'm ignorant of my ignorance what if I'm blind to my own victimization as a woman. I wouldn't say I'm oppressed per se but what affects other females around the world affects me too. There are countries presently i wouldn't travel to based upon their treatment of women.
We walk around feeling like we have rights but we really don't. Looking around, this world is still very patriarchal.Women are barely present in positions of leadership. An abortion debate is going on where women, in my opinion need to take the lead. I believe they would come up with the best solution. Obviously they know first hand how they get into situations where they start considering abortion. And i believe the solution would involve more on prevention compared to the current argument of yes abortion and no abortion.
I swear I'm gonna read up on this shit. I'm a feminist from now on. Now, where are those DC albums...
