On why I need feminism.

• I don't want my career progression to be stopped by the glass ceiling.
• I want to be able to have as much sex or as little sex as I want without judgement.
• I want to love my body.
• I don't want to my worth to be measured by the way I look.
• I don't want to have to "have it all".
• I can be sexist sometimes.
• I love men.
• I love women.
• I don't want to be bombarded by naked women (and sometimes men) everywhere I look.
• I'm sick of "make me a sandwich bitch" style jokes.
• I'm sick of rape culture.
• I want to earn as much as my male counterpart.
• I want to see more than one body type (men and women) on TV/film/print.
• I want to be able to be girly, feminine, masculine, boisterous etc. all at the same time.
• I want certain men to learn to make a compliment rather than tell me to learn to take one.
• Learn to make a joke rather than tell me to get a sense of humour.
• I have a sense of humour.
• Women are funny. So are men.
• Sex workers and strippers are people too and should be treated as such.
• Just because I'm a woman doesn't mean I need protecting.
• I wish I didn't have to justify not wanting to marry.
• Or maybe not having kids.
• Or the fact that I hate cooking.
• Anti-ageing is a con.
• I don't want to be on a diet.
• I want the freedom to make my own choices.
• I want autonomy over my own body.
• I don't need a bunch of dudes who can't even get pregnant telling me about abortion.
• Because I am any man's equal.
