New favorite Tumblr: Pizza Feminism

"The mozzarella's tools will never dismantle the mozzarella's house." -Audre Lorde

Combining my two favorite things in the world, Pizza Feminism serves up slices of feminist wisdom against mouth-watering backdrops. The original quotes are helpfully included–although some really work just as well with “pizza” inserted.

I mean, who can argue with this?

"No woman can call herself free who does not control her own pizza." Margaret Sanger

And this is the most comprehensive definition of love I’ve ever seen:

"Love is a combination, care, commitment, knowledge, responsibility, respect, pizza, and trust." -bell hooks
