Sheffield Femsoc

An all inclusive, intersectional Feminist Society at Sheffield University.

[UN Women @UN_Women]

Listening to lyrics that blame women,
watching TV that objectifies women,
through attitudes we don't question,
and jokes we laugh at,

we become part of a culture that allows rape to continue.

Change starts with all of us. #orangetheworld #16days
