این عکس را اول تقدیم میکنیم به‌ مادرانمان و بعدا به‌ تمام زنان سرزمینمان کوردستان.
پوشیدن لباس زنانه‌ی کوردی نه‌ تنها تحقیر نیست بلکه‌ یک افتخار بزگ است برای ما.
از دیرباز زنان سرزمینمان پا به‌ پای مردان در همه‌ی جایگاه جامعه‌ حضور داشته‌اند،
در آن زمانی که‌ به‌ خاطر زن بودن آنهارا زنده‌ به‌ گور میکردند، زنان ملتمان کوردستان در جنگها فرمانده‌ و در جامعه‌ از ارزش والایی برخوردار بودند،
هیچ کس و هیچ دولت و قانونی نمیتواند به‌ زنان ما بی احترامی کند .

“Being a woman is not a means to humiliate and punish anyone”

After a policeman in the Iranian Kurdish town of Marivan paraded an accused criminal in traditional Kurdish women’s clothes in the streets in order to humiliate him, women marched in the city condemning the use of women’s attire as a kind of humiliation.

In support, an internet campaign of Kurdish and other Iranian men has sprung up showing men wearing Kurdish women’s clothes and messages and support. For example, this message says,”wearing Kurdish women’s clothes is not only not an insult, it is instead a great honor for us,” and goes on to describe how women stand side by side with men in every part of society and during wartime.

Support the campaign by liking the page!
زن بودن ابزار تحقیر و تنبیه هیچ کس نیست

Also, in a day and age where parents are (rightly) concerned about the violence and sexual themes available to kids on television? There is Big Bird and Grover and Cookie Monster teaching tolerance, and counting, not killing. That ALONE should be worth 130 million.

So we’ve been watching this series called How We Won The War and they’re currently doing a section about female ATA pilots during WW2 and holy shit look how badass they are

They were the first women allowed into, let alone fly, an RAF aircraft. Their male peers were of they opinion that they should “go back to the kitchen” so only let them fly shitty archaic planes with open cockpits that nearly caused them to freeze to death one winter. They tried to make them wear skirts and stockings during winter but they were like “haha no” and wore proper flight gear instead. They flew in terrible weather with poor visibility, no radio and no electronic navigational equipment. Though not permitted to fly into combat zones they were still frequently under fire. Over time their contribution to the air force was recognised and the ATA was the first government organisation to give equal pay for equal work regardless of gender.

It’s Only A Paper Moon - Chiemi Eri

Chiemi Eri, born January 11, 1937, died February 13, 1982) was a Japanese popular singer and actress.

Eri was born as Chiemi Kubo on January 11, 1937 in Tokyo, Japan. She started her singing career at the age of 14 with her version of “Tennessee Waltz.” She sang American songs such as “Jambalaya” & “Come on-a My House”. Eri started her career as an actress similar to Misora Hibari. Eri, Misora and Izumi Yukimura formed a trio. In her concerts, she was supported by Nobuo Hara’s jazz band.

(A personal note: This is my favorite song in the world and when she sings the lyrics in Japanese it becomes even more beautiful. An interesting lady, she was only sixteen when this was recorded!)

Security camera clips that make the news usually show bad things, but Coke decided to “look at the world a little differently” in this heartwarming viral video. They found security camera footage from around the world showing happy moments: people stealing kisses instead of possessions, dealing potato chips instead of drugs, and offering car assistance rather than road rage.

Are you looking at the world’s first computer programmer?

Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace (10 December 1815 – 27 November 1852), born Augusta Ada Byron and now commonly known as Ada Lovelace, was an English mathematician and writer chiefly known for her work on Charles Babbage’s early mechanical general-purpose computer, the analytical engine. Her notes on the engine include what is recognised as the first algorithm intended to be processed by a machine; thanks to this, she is sometimes considered the world’s first computer programmer.

If the last name Byron sounds familiar, here’s why,

Ada was the only legitimate child of the poet Lord Byron (with Anne Isabella Milbanke, 11th Baroness Wentworth). [Text & Image Source: Wikipedia]

If you didn’t know, now you know.

We actually just talked about her in my last History and Systems class, wow. Here’s some fun facts: Babbage called her “my Enchantress of Numbers.” Ada called herself a “Bride of Science.” I don’t know whether to interpret that as asexual or just a 1800s-appropriate way for a woman to say “fuck you dude, you’re creepy, stop calling me that.” When Ada died, Babbage became increasingly bitter. Eventually he started a war on organ grinders (I wish I were making this up) which made people think he’d totally lost it, and I can’t say I blame them. In 1980 the US DOD named the programming language for its military computer control system “Ada” after her.

another of my fave asian action stars, if you haven’t watched any of JiJa’s movies you should seriously check her out… she pays homage to stars such as jackie chan, bruce lee and there’s even a scene she pays homage to tony jaa…

chocolate has some great fights and really shows off what JiJa is capable of.

raging phoenix is a mix of styles ranging from Muay Thai, taekwondo, chinese drunken boxing and also a little hip hop dancing.
