This is a new curation post boosting some of the great writing and art posted under the #teamgirlpowa tag. We love the awesome feminist and women-centered work you all are producing—keep it up!

In Defense of the Fangirl by @pinas
This insightful cultural critique of the denigration of women and girls who share enthusiasm for their favorite pop culture products is awesome and important.

Other Mothers’ Children by @shawnamawna
This is a lovely reflection on young women and teenage girlhood, through the eyes of a mother. Shawna is a really sweet, thoughtful writer with a unique perspective.

Burly Beefcakes Ain’t (Always) It by @veryspider
This is a cute little comic about an internet exchange regarding what women find attractive. Click through and check out the comic to have a laugh!

Another 3am by @limabeing
A lovely, introspective, and radically vulnerable poem from our own Cap’n GirlPowa! Also featuring some beautiful music and original art.

Feminism Sunday: Talkin’ bout a Women’s Revolution by @didic
This is an interesting and informative explanation of some recent moves in the WWE regarding women wrestling—both advances and missteps. It’s a really thoughtful piece, and very accessible to someone (like today’s curator) who has next to no knowledge about the WWE.

Our Own Masters-100 Days of Poetry Challenge: Day Fifty Three by @trucklife-family
A poem from the very talented @trucklife-family. She took first place in our recent poetry contest, and we love her work! Today’s poem is about creativity, creation, and owning one’s own potential. Love it.
