Eli Torres & Yen Dorado
Sizzle! This is hot! The dance combination performed and executed by two male dancers is exactly what I've been looking for in dance routines: fresh, original, synchronized, and professional. Even their bow is timed. Watch it. You won't be disappointed.
Pink & Her Dad - "I Have Seen the Rain"
Another pop artist that I've never really been that into, but definitely has a strong voice and a fierce personality. This song gave me the shivers.
Katy Perry - Thinking of You (Acoustic)
I've never been a fan of Katy Perry's music, but when I saw this back in 2009, it spoke to me. I like the acoustic version. It slows the song down so I can listen to the lyrics, and I can actually hear a talented voice in there. Great performance below...
Miley Cyrus + Free The Nipple
I love her. She's got such strong energy. She's talented, creative, fashionable, and opinionated. Great combination if ya ask me...

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie - Feminist TED Talk
Now that I've reached my thirties, a lot of concepts that were insignificant to me (or better yet...too complex for me to understand), now make sense. Spirituality and feminism are of the things that I now have deeper understanding. And this TED talk represents the understanding I've come to in regards to feminism. Perhaps it took me 31 years to experience mistreatment and inequality based on my sex. And perhaps it was those experiences that lead to me to see the injustice and that gave way to understanding. When I was younger, I didn't know how real racism was, because I grew up as a white girl surrounded by people of all color. I personally didn't experience racism, and still don't. And I have always been accepting of all people, and assumed everyone else thought just like me. But I've found that racism is real, and that not everyone thinks like me. And sexism is real. And other struggles are real, too. Like mental illness. Eating disorders. Abuse. I'm a big proponent of equality. Empathy. Understanding. Loving-kindess. Connection. I DO understand where the feminist bashing comes into play, but it's rooted in misunderstanding and fear. It is ignorance, bigoted ideas, and insecurity that cause people to hold onto limiting and oppressive beliefs. Let's open the doors of our minds to acceptance of and equality for everyone. Because everyone deserves it. Everyone.

The UnSlut Project
I love this. Let's stop shaming each other and start embracing everyone's healthy expression of sexuality!
