We know not all women have periods or uteruses (uteri??), but check out this trailblazer: #LeonaChalmers, the inventor of the menstrual cup. Leona was an actress and inventor (and overall badass/genius) who was way ahead of her time. All the way back in 1937 she realized what many of us are just now realizing, that traditional period products just weren’t cutting it. She became “acutely aware of the needs for special improvements in the methods used for intimate feminine hygiene” and filed a patent for the menstrual cup. Love her. Fast forward 82 years and her invention is finally on the rise and gaining huge momentum! Do you use a cup? via @dotcup

From Issue 04 alum @tlynnfaz of @stoptellingwomentosmile: “Women Are Just Trying to Make it Home Safe. Rakia and I spoke about her particular experiences and perspective on street harassment for my book, Stop Telling Women to Smile. She talked about something that struck me. How women are just trying to make it home without being harassed, followed, talked to, cat called, sexualized, whistled at. How we are navigating past violence, rerouting ourselves, smiling and nodding to keep interactions neutral, just to make it home safely. And particularly, Black women, similar to other Black people, are also navigating past police violence in order to make it home safely. It’s something that so many women feel and are taught, the significance of safety. The reality is that women die at the hands of men who feel rejected by them. When we talk about street harassment, we are talking about the right to a sense of safe movement in the public, something that so many women do not have.” Stop Telling Women to Smile is available for pre-order, right now, at the link in @tlynnfaz’s bio.
We’ve been a @lizzobeeating stan account since we first heard #batchesandcookies 🍪 in 2013 and had the honor of featuring her in (the now sold out) Issue 04! "Truth Hurts" is officially the new No. 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 and we couldn’t be more stoked that the world knows this woman’s multi-threat talent—not to mention that she’s 💯 percent that bitch. CONGRATS LIZZO!! 👑 🍾Check out @lisabutterworth’s 2015 interview with her up on our site now! 📸 @ashaefia #lizzo #100percentthatbitch #truthhurts #gotagirlcrush
