5 More Reasons Why I’m a Feminist

5 more reasons why I'm a feminist | Belle Brita

Back in June I shared 10 Reasons Why I’m a Feminist. (Although the url says 29, and it’s too late to fix that). I’ve had an incredibly busy week, and I didn’t have time to write my intended post for today. So instead, here are 5 more reasons why I’m a feminist! Why I’m a… [Read More]

Ryan Held is the Athletic Hero America Needs

Ryan Held, and so many other Olympic athletes, demonstrate healthy masculinity. | Belle Brita

Ryan Held demonstrated ALL THE FEELS the other night after winning his first Olympic gold medal during the men’s 4×100 freestyle relay. Up on the podium with his teammates, he unashamedly started crying as the American National Anthem played. Teammate Michael Phelps, the most-decorated Olympic athlete of all time, laughed good-naturedly and pulled in Held for… [Read More]

10 Reasons Why I’m a Feminist

I'm a feminist for many reasons. Here are just 10 of them. | Belle Brita

I’ve been a bit busy this week, so today’s installment of Friday’s The F-Word is a bit shorter than usual. I’m a feminist for many reasons. Here are 10 of them. It’s 2016, and the United States has never had a female president. While the November election could change that, it’s absolutely absurd that this… [Read More]

How Small is Your God?

I worship a God so much greater than my limited human understanding. But other Christians want to make God small according to manmade ideas. | Belle Brita

Our God is an awesome God He reigns from heaven above With wisdom, power, and love Our God is an awesome God -Rich Mullins Who else sang this song at church camp and youth group? It’s a very simple song, with repetitive lyrics, perfect for inspiring a bunch of kids and teens to sing together…. [Read More]

No, You’re Not a Feminist (But Not for the Reasons You Think)

A response to the article, "I'm Not a Feminist, and That is Okay." | Belle Brita

Better late than never. My response to, “I am Not a Feminist, and That is Okay.” You are not a feminist. You’re right–that is okay. I have a lot more to do as a feminist than try to argue with everyone who doesn’t like the label. So you’re not a feminist. Fine. Whatever. But you… [Read More]

Feminism is More than Just “Girl Power”

Who else is tired of all the oft-repeated quotes on International Women's Day? I'm more interested in real change. In feminism. In treating gender equality like a serious issue 365 days a year, not just on March 8th. | Belle Brita

International Women’s Day! Women’s History Month! Girl power, woo! Right? If you spent any time on the Internet on March 8th, you probably saw at least a few dozen posts about International Women’s Day. While versions of this holiday date back to 1909, the actual “international” part of the day really started to spread in… [Read More]
