First World Feminism

What's the point of this website?

A fair question. Two quick answers:

1. Those of us lucky enough to live in the most progressive parts of the world tend to focus on how good we have it, and yet we still haven’t achieved true gender equality.

2. I’m over trying to pitch women’s magazines. If the story isn’t about slimmer thighs for summer, they’re just not interested.

This stuff is important, I’ll try not to make it too dry.

Help-Portrait is a movement of photographers who find someone in need, take a portrait of him/her, print it out and give it to him/her.

It doesn’t seem like something that would matter to somebody who is down on her luck but, as you can see from the video, it does.

Maybe it’s because sometimes when we see a photo of ourselves looking beautiful, we remember who we are.
