Because I am a Woman

I am a graduate student studying in Worcester, MA. I am also a peer sex educator, reproductive justice activist, and feminist.

This blog is about sex-positivity, sex-ed, feminism, reproductive justice, birth justice, intersectionality, and activism.

Feel free to send me a message with your questions about sexual health, feminism, or anything else!

For more information about any of these things please check out the resources tab or leave me a question in my ask box! I would love to talk to you!

If you have anything you would like to bring to my attention or ask that you do not feel comfortable submitting to this page send me an email at: becauseiamawoman.tumblr@gmail.com

Women’s wages are key to putting food on the families’ tables and keeping roofs over their heads. When women’s salaries are short-changed, so are families’ incomes and our overall economy.
U.S. Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) responded to The Paycheck Fairness Act failing to move forward by a vote, largely on party lines, 52-47.  The legislation aims to close the gap on women’s wages, since women still earn 79 cents to every dollar a man earns, by increasing protections for women filing gender-discrimination lawsuits and allowing employees to discuss their salaries openly.  (via nbclatino)
