Agreed. Also, don’t forget about those teen magazines I hate so much…

This is so sad. I can’t imagine being married as a child; heck, the girls don’t know what they were forced into!
This is an abomination. No one, no matter what race, gender or age should be forced into the exploitation of their rights…

Excellent post! You’ve actually motivated me to watch TV more, which I don’t usually do because of shows like James Bond and all shows like that.

My school? Well… let’s just say that we have waaaay too many boys who objectify girls and girls whose “dreams” are to get married and find a man to take care of them.
Ugh.
But at least I have about… three friends who are clearly feminists.

This is an awesome article! I too believe that people need to change their views of rape, especially when it comes to who rapes and who’s being raped.

Thank you for posting this. I’m also really annoyed when people say that sports in which most athletes are women are not “real” sports.

…Mental illness? Really, I can’t believe the nerve of such people. Rapes are cases that need to be professionally investigated, not brushed off. No one can tell who’s lying if rapes are brushed off like this.

As a teen feminist, I see girls doing this everyday… Minus the soccer star thing. But still, this idea that girls have to be frail and thin has got to die. We’ve got enough people with eating disorders already…

I HATE the term “sex slave”, and I agree wholeheartedly with this article. I can’t believe people actually partake in sex-slavery… Those sex-slaves need someone to defend them!

Thank you so much for compiling all these articles. My favorites are Roxanne Krystalli and Juliet E. McKenna’s articles. Ms. Krystalli has an excellent point there; many women need to be acknowledged for their abilities, not because they’re simply women. I’m going to keep a lookout for Ms. McKenna’s book; I’ll be sure to buy [...]
