I started reading feminist blogs like Feministing and Jezebel at the beginning of high school and, although I loved them, I wondered why there wasn’t a similar space for high school and college-aged feminists. I was completely blown away by all of the atrocities happening to women across the world and in my own backyard, and began to align myself with the fight for women’s rights and feminism. Everybody in my middle school was required to give a speech in order to graduate, and through my research for that speech I came across the world of women’s rights, global misogyny and feminism. I started the FBomb the summer after my sophomore year of high school, but I had become interested in feminism a couple years before that in middle school. Here’s her story:ġ) What inspired the FBomb and how old were you? I wasn't born a wife or mother.” Julie may not have been born a feminist, but look out world – she’s dropping the FBomb. Hillary Clinton said: I wasn't born a first lady or a senator.
Our ignorance is embarrassing and insulting and will only hurt us in the long run. Wade was a boxing match that was recently televised by ESPN, I’m going to freakin’ rip my hair out. If I hear one more girl wonder aloud if Roe vs. Reason #1: Our generation desperately needs some perspective. A sneak peek into the book, Part 1: The Badasses Who Came Before Us, Julie gives three major reasons why she thinks it's important to understand the history of women who came before her generation. Like the FBomb, it's real, witty, bold and provides reasons to rally behind feminism. It's the book that debunks myths about today's youth, the first book about feminism for young women in their teens and twenties to be written by a teen. A Little F'd Up takes the online conversation to print.
