Old-fashioned Patriarchy is violent and terrible for women. Pass it on.

"Donald Trump continues to attempt to woo women by calling them ‘dumb’

While Melania sits at her desk writing long letters to the king of the United Kingdom, her husband is continuing to tour the United States yelling about how stupid women are. During a recent rally, Trump touched on Kamala Harris’s appearance on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy, a podcast that is extremely popular with young woman. 'I think the other one asking the question[s] is dumber than Kamala. [Cooper is] a dummy,' Trump said. 'I’ve watched her over the years. That is one dumb – that is one dumb woman. Sorry, I’m sorry, women, she’s a dummy.' So there you go, the man who recently promised that he ,'WILL PROTECT WOMEN AT A LEVEL NEVER SEEN BEFORE,' wants you to know that successful women are actually really dumb.

The situation for pregnant women in Gaza is catastrophic

'More than 500,000 women have lost access to vital services like pre-and postnatal care, family planning and treatment for infections; over 17,000 pregnant women are in severe stages of hunger,: according to a UN News report. The suffering is unimaginable and there is no end in sight."

"Being dangerously thin is back in. Is the body-positivity era officially over?"
