International Women’s Day

I would like to wish everyone a happy International Women’s Day!  My wonderfully brilliant wife Tasha who runs the blog The Voracious Vegan is a passionate feminist.  While I have always wanted equality and human rights for everyone and was, of course, aware of the imbalance that exists in the world, Tasha helped open my eyes to the far reaching grip that sexism holds on our society.

We became vegans together at the same moment, and because of her, I have also come to know really what it means to be a feminist – part of which, as a male, is knowing that I can never truly understand what it means to be the victim of the all saturating, all encompassing sexism that pervades nearly every part of every society.

In honor of International Women’s Day, Tasha put together the following video featuring music by EGOIST that takes a look at some answers to the question, “Why Feminism?”  She has also had the opportunity to provide a guest post on the award winning raw food blog Choosing Raw for International Women’s Day discussing the link between Feminism and Veganism.
