This weekend, I had the opportunity to go to the Women’s March in Philadelphia.
This experience was unlike any I’ve ever had before. I went with a group of fantastic girls and it was so great to see how many people turned out. There were people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds there to support women’s rights and it was so great to see how many people felt passionate about the cause.
One of the best parts of the march was for sure the signs. It was so cool to see what everyone came up with, so below, see some of my favorites.
1. Political
Believe me, there are plenty of pictures I could have used for this one, but let’s all admire how perfect that Twitter bird is
2. Intelligence
Girls can do anything boys can do and don’t you forget it. Plenty of girls used their signs as a way to promote just how smart girls can be.
3. Optimistic
These are the signs that you read and immediately feel empowered and like you could take on the world.
4. Artistic
These are the signs that lower your self-confidence, you know? Like you just look at it and it has all these pretty colors and your sign gets too close to it and you can’t help but think, damn.
5. Rhyming
Who doesn’t love Dr. Seuss? No better person to model your rhyming sign after.
6. Song-inspired
Some people are just so creative… I loved this song in fifth grade because my favorite American Idol contestant sang it. I screeched when I saw this one.
7. Word Play
My roommate is also an engineer so shout out to her and all the other female engineers out there. I seriously applaud you guys.
8. Harry Potter
Who doesn’t love Harry Potter?? And if there’s one person I’ve always wanted to be it’s Hermione Granger.
9. All-encompassing
These signs just hit everything at once. Anything a person could be upset about is represented on this one sign.
10. Poetic
Some of the signs are just too beautifully written. They have these beautiful long quotes on them that just give you chills to read about.
11. Family
Let’s be honest, everything is better when you do it as a family. These families sure did come ready to make a statement.
