It is brave for a woman to speak from her heart, but it takes even more courage for a man to do so. As bell hooks says: The first act of violence that patriarchy demands of males is not violence toward women. Instead, patriarchy demands of all males that they engage in acts of psychic self-mutilation, that they kill off the emotional parts of themselves.

So, lets celebrate and cherish these acts of bravery, art, rebellion, beauty, and love. ↓
