However, being a woman/girl/female/human, in the 21st Century, in the United Kingdom, on International Women's Day, how can I not post recognition to some of the oh-so-fab wonders of ladyisms?!
1. In the space of three years, the amount of female billionaires has increased by 90%! (A newbie this year, Elizabeth Holmes is the founder of the blood testing company Theranos and is only 31!)
2. Speaking of money, we don't have to sit on our wallets or keys.
4. We can wear skirts.
5. We can wear trousers.
6. Something the size of a watermelon can be pushed out of our vagina.7. And our boobs can produce milk?! Moo.
8. Men can have paternal leave as well.
9. Malala Yousafazai - Nobel Prize recipient. A brave, 17 year old girl fighting for the rights of young girls to have an education.
10. We don't have testicles. Giving birth is (apparently) unbelievably painful, at least something good comes from that pain.
11. A kitchen is where we belong? What about all those with Mageirophobia*? What about those who are lazy? Oh yeah, we have ready meals now.
12.We don't get public boners.
13. We can cry but still appear to be strong.
14. We no longer have an obligation to be feminine or conform to a stereotype.15. We can marry a man OR a woman.
16. We don't have to get married.
17. A woman can be a policeman. A man can be a midwife. We can go into any profession that we want.
18. We finally have a female bishop!!
19. Female entrepreneurs: women are starting up to 1200 businesses a day. That's a lot of businesses. Does an eBay account count?
20. If we want to be taller, all we have to do is wear heels. (And possibly twist your ankle half way down the street).
22. We blow out more candles - sorry guys, but apparently women on average live longer than you.
23. Once a month you can have a legitimate reason crying and screaming at everybody. And then consuming an entire packet of oreo's.
24. Lena Dunham.
25. (and so of course) Girls.
