Boys will be boys

Boys will be boys Listening to some Dua Lipa, I was reminded of the fantastic song “Boys will be Boys”, one of my fave of all time due to the strong message (and funky beat of course!). It also resonated with me because I remember walking home with my keys in my knuckles, I remember laughing it off when a car full of men on a winters night started doing donuts on the road in front of me so I…

One of my fave songs of all time is @dualipa and boys will be boys, strong message and even stronger lyric video! 😁

Just having another listen to remind myself of all those times I felt so unsafe that I walked home with my keys in my knuckles 👊 🔑

And all those times I was told I had to be a grown up while the boys were rewarded for being little shits 💩

I hope one day we can finally get across how important mutual respect is and why 👫

Loved seeing this on Reddit the other day..... what the actual hell???? 🤯

It's old news but still relevant, being a feminist isn't about charging men more because they're men, its about establishing some basic equality principles and championing those women who are unequally treated. 🙋🏼‍♀️✌

If this is feminism then I'm just a "humanist" because this is also unequal treatment.

Let's stop creating a larger divide than there already is shall we?? 🙄

Valentines Schmalentines

Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone, single, not single, gay, straight, lonely, not lonely, looking for love and happy being single! Of course, Valentine’s day is just an excuse for greedy businesses to make extra money on a random, otherwise meaningless day. But during the Coronavirus Pandemic, I think its become something more than that. It’s a way for businesses to survive, perhaps by offering…

Happy Valentines day! 💘

My husband ACTUALLY got me something after NOT celebrating V-Day over the last 10 years! So a big thank you to him!

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

My favourite part is that the card is from @think_looploop and is plantable 🪴🌱 therefore negating the need to recycle ♻️.....or keep for a hundred years in a keepsake box.... because you can plant it in your garden/window box and little poppies will grow! What a fantastic idea!!

G...G...G...GHOST!

G...G...G...GHOST! A tale of dating, ghosting, buddies of the sexual variety and... baths.

Not your usual type of poltergeist, the modern day ghost is the worst kind of ghoul. I have a pal who had been a little unlucky lately in the bedroom department, she was single and ready to mingle but had no partners to dance with- if you get my drift. So, on the advice of one of our more promiscuous friends, she decided to succumb to the charms of a man who was after just one thing and one…

Let's play a little game..... 🙃

I keep hearing songs about being in love with yourself lately. But the thing is.... its fricking hard work to just wake up one day and be like "I love myself and my fat rolls make me curvy and sassy" 🙋🏼‍♀️

In actual fact my fat rolls have simply meant my jeans are super tight when they come out the wash and I look positively AWFUL in a photo when I'm at the front. Or to the side. Or on the end. 😳

However, I do feel that as I get older I'm finding it easier to give less of a shit. And that has to be some sort of self love, yeah? 🤯

If you're feeling all positive polly today then comment one thing you like about yourself below 👇 and tag a buddy, keep the chain flowing so tomorrow you MIGHT find it a little easier to wake up a tad more confident! 😘😘

Ohhhh Tinder, you crazy thing...

Ohhhh Tinder, you crazy thing…

What the hell is the situation with Tinder? It seems, more now than before, that: 1) The eligible bachelors have left the building 2) Its a hotbed of moral turpentine (Hairspray movie, thank you!) 3) Dick pics have replaced emoji’s 4) Females have morphed into the very people we’ve been trying NOT to be I’m all for fun and games, don’t get me wrong, but my friend showed me a side of Tinder…

What is Feminism?

I suppose this is a question that nobody can truly answer because it means different things to different people. For example, my sister has recently taken to posting provocative, sometimes naked and basically beggy/slutty pictures on her Instagram. Now, this was a real test for me as a feminist and as an older sibling, I felt concerned for her, her mental wellbeing and her family. Part of me…

⚠️ Beware strong opinions ⚠️

A quote from my latest post (link in bio and below!) 😍

This time I'm banging on about how SOME managers are a touch behind the curve when it comes to sexism in the workplace and my frustration with leaders who don't get to the point.... 🧏🏼‍♀️
