“You can hack the system once you understand the system. And once you’re in, you can be one of the disrupters to the
system. Break the system. Create a new system that works to the benefit of everyone—an even playing field.”
Michelle Kinsman, Real-World Feminist Handbook: Practical Advice on How to Find, Win & Kick Ass at Your First Job

“Why do I call myself the Real-World Feminist? I also bristle at the bullshit labels that come with the term “feminist.” Because we’re not man-hating, humorless PC-robots, and I’m not going to be boxed in by anyone else’s idea of what a feminist is.”
Michelle Kinsman, Real-World Feminist Handbook: Practical Advice on How to Find, Win & Kick Ass at Your First Job
