My Mighty Girl club has a massive focus on body positivity and ensuring we are strong, healthy young women (we can’t take over the world on an empty stomach). We did a fab activity today from @laura_bates__ Girl Up book and I would recommend doing it no matter your gender or age. We talked about the favourite parts of our bodies and why we loved them. We then discussed what the different parts of our bodies are perfect for and why we loved them too. We then snacked on fizzy fangs, celebrated the ends of SATs and talked about different foods being healthy for the body and healthy for the heart #mightygirls #mightygirlclub #thingsmybodyisperfectfor #girlup #bodypositivity #bodypositive #stronggirlsbecomestrongwomen #loveyourself #spreadthegirlpower #feministblogger #feministblog #feminist #feminism #intersectionalfeminism #blogger #girlssupportgirls #thefutureisintersectional #neverthelessshepersisted #rebelgirl #mightygirl #feministteacher #teachlikeagirl #feminismintheclassroom #empoweredwomenempowergirls

I’ve not been able to walk properly for 2 days while my body recovers from a particular hard (for me) workout on Tuesday. While feeling about a hundred years old, this morning I listened to a @bbcwomanshour podcast about ageing. It got me thinking about how I felt about it and then I saw what Pink has being saying about the ageing process. I’ve always believed we should wear our lives on our faces and bodies. I have a body that is covered in scars, bruises and tattoos so why should my face not tell the same story of my life? I thought about reapplying my lipstick before taking this picture as I had licked it off the corners of my mouth while eating a donut earlier but I couldn’t be bothered. I have blackheads, crows feet, spider veins, scars and frown lines but then I am in mid thirties and, like Pink, I’ve earned every damn blemish #ageing #age #pink #bodypositive #feministblogger #feministblog #feminist #feminism #intersectionalfeminism #blogger #girlssupportgirls #thefutureisintersectional #neverthelessshepersisted #rebelgirl #mightygirl #feministteacher #teachlikeagirl #feminismintheclassroom #empoweredwomenempowergirls

TW: rape, forced marriage. Noura Hussein was forced by her own father into a marriage that she had already fled from 3 years previously. Still only 19, she was raped by her ‘husband’ who was assisted by his relatives. Following a second attempted rape, she stabbed him in self defence and upon seeking help from her own family, she was then handed over to the police by them. She now faces the death penalty and has 9 days left to appeal. Sudan is ranked 165 out of 188 countries on the UN’s Gender Inequality Index, roughly one in three girls are married in Sudan before they are 18 and marital rape is not considered a crime. https://www.change.org/p/justice-for-noura-maritalrape-deathsentence-sudan #noura #justicefornoura #nourahussein #savenoura #sudan #endviolenceagainstwomen #endforcedmarriage #selfdefense #feministblogger #feministblog #feminist #feminism #intersectionalfeminism #blogger #girlssupportgirls #thefutureisintersectional #neverthelessshepersisted #rebelgirl #mightygirl #feministteacher #teachlikeagirl #feminismintheclassroom #empoweredwomenempowergirls

I’ve just received this stunning book from @thefemalelead at school today. They are a non-profit dedicated to highlighting amazing women in order to offer young girls strong, powerful role models. They have teaching resources to bring the book and accompanying films into the classroom which I can’t wait to check out! #thefemalelead #shesmyinspiration #ifshecanseeitshecanbeit #representationmatters #avaduvernay #rolemodel #feministblogger #feministblog #feminist #feminism #intersectionalfeminism #blogger #girlssupportgirls #thefutureisintersectional #neverthelessshepersisted #rebelgirl #mightygirl #feministteacher #teachlikeagirl #feminismintheclassroom #empoweredwomenempowergirls

Ever wanted to do so much and achieve so much more that your brain doesn’t feel like it ever stops? I am only now finding the confidence to do what I want to do and I love seeing the women around me do the same. We must use our power, our privilege and our passion to assist, persist and resist #keepshowingup #assistresistpersist #resist #useyourvoice #feministblogger #feministblog #feminist #feminism #intersectionalfeminism #blogger #girlssupportgirls #thefutureisintersectional #neverthelessshepersisted #rebelgirl #mightygirl #feministteacher #teachlikeagirl #feminismintheclassroom #empoweredwomenempowergirls
