T-Shirt

I recently bought the above T-shirt from the feminist majority foundation website. Although it's a cute raspberry and white color and I do look good wearing it, I have only worn it once and even that time I was quite self-conscious. After that day I kind of felt guilty because it felt like I was ashamed of saying that I'm a feminist, which I'm not. I don't know, i think I'm just not comfortable with wearing something so loud, I'm really not an ALL-CAPS type of person.
In defending my honor, I have decided to first invest in a more low-key feminist shirt and second, instead of wearing the t-shirt on my body, to wear it here on my blog. But since no one can see my face to see "what a feminist looks like", I will give a more comprehensive description of me below. If anyone else who reads this post is interested in doing something similar, please feel free to borrow this shirt and wear it on your blog.
so here it goes :)
