Smash The Binary

Watch: Regular women and celebrities, many of whom have survived sexual assault or harassment, are banding together to tell Trump “It’s not okay”

In the cases of all the women who spoke out in the video, there was no justice. Their assaulters and harassers walked free because either nobody believed them or there was nothing they could do. The Trump tape was one of many final straws. "We’re not gonna take it any more,“ Amber Tamblyn said. “Like, for real, we’re not.”

WHAT IS HEXER?

Hexer is a 12-episode webseries we’ve been working on for the last two years. It centres around friendship and magic and mystery. WHAT’S THE STORY? A female chosen one is picked every 25 years to learn hex magic. A group of friends deals with life after one of them is chosen to be the Hexer - because this year a boy is chosen instead, and the group becomes more and more suspicious that they are being lied to. IS IT DIVERSE? YES. The show is full of women, people of colour, people in the LGBTQ+ community, and people dealing with mental health issues.  These is something we have often been disappointed by in other series - and we are determined not to disappoint you.

WHEN WILL IT GET MADE? We’re currently in a crowdfunding competition for diverse voices which, if we get funded, will allow us to make the pilot by April 2017. Depending on whether we qualify for additional grant money, we can start work on the whole series in 2017! CAN I HELP? Please do!! The link below will take you to our crowdfunding page where you can follow the project (free, and you can sign in through facebook) or donate (if you want to). We’ll be updating the project throughout the month with fun extras about the series. Mostly we just need you to pass the word on, so REBLOG THIS and/or TELL A BUDDY.

19 Men Go Shirtless And Share Their Body Image Struggles

The fruitless quest for a “perfect” body isn’t unique to women,  though based on the body image conversations we tend to hear, it’s easy to think so.

Spoiler alert: Men have body insecurities, too, and that’s nothing to be ashamed of.

14 Men Tell Us How They Learned The Value Of Consent

It’s something feminists have been talking about for years it’s called toxic masculinity and it’s one of the common threads among the topic of ‘Patriarchy hurts men too’. If fact the first time I read about toxic masculinity was on a feminist blog.

Watch: The trailer for ‘Hidden Figures’ is here — and it looks incredible.

“Underneath We Are Women” - Showcasing the diversity of women’s bodies and sharing their stories

The AIM; Photograph 100 women. The GOAL; educate thousands! EDUCATION is key to giving women AND men a better understanding and appreciation for the diversity of the female body and the ways in which it grows, shapes and changes over time and with different life experiences. And what better way to educate than through honest and uplifting photographs of 100 women!

UNDERNEATH, WE ARE… young, fat, tall, WE ARE trans, skinny, disabled, WE ARE mothers, WE ARE short, scarred and old. We are the many labels that society has created for us. But what if I told you that underneath, underneath it all, I AM… determined, tenacious, strong, capable, loud, resilient… would you see me differently?   So sure, give us a label, put us in a category, but underneath it all, WE ARE women.
