8 Reasons why I LOVE my #pinkpussyhat!!!

I couldn’t resist and share my LOVE of my #pinkpussyhat!!

Don’t you LOVE that there were thousands of #pinkpussyhats at Women’s Marches all over the country on Saturday?!! And many of them flew on planes, wearing their pinkpussyhats! I have so much to say but I’ve narrowed it down to:

8 Reasons why I LOVE my #pinkpussyhat!

  • My mom made it for me within 24 hours of me asking for it
  • It’s totally hip and cute. It’s like a costume, fun way to be out there but not too crazy.
  • It’s cute and fun and it’s a political statement! Thousands of women wore their #pinkpussyhat to the Women’s March to challenge Trump’s disparaging comment toward women’s pussies. This little hat alone is instantly recognizable and symbolizes the Pussy Empowerment movement!
  • #Pinkpussyhat reclaims the work Pussy and elevates the “p” word from a demeaning, derogatory context to the empowered “pussy power context” as promoted by books like “Pussy: A Reclamation” by Mama Gena.
  • It’s useful, simple, rebellious, pink and warm! And I feel empowered all at the same time!
  • It helped get massive coverage of women in the news because a #pinkpussyhat is a very distinct physical emblem and it was worn by so many women.
  • It’s a piece of functional art and part of the women’s craft movement—very feminine, made my hand.
  • I didn’t get to go to the march and yet I feel connected to the march and this hat continues the movement! I can keep wearing it when I feel fun and playful and people in the know will smile or even come up to me and we get to chat about the movement!

Share with me in the comments what you love about #pinkpussyhats!!! Do you feel empowered when you wear it? I want to hear about it!  It’s too much fun and guess what?  The March isn’t over!!
Lets keep the March alive!


To your #pinkpussyhat empowerment!
