Why You Need To Have Those Embarrassing Talks With Your Girlfriends
NBC News

We need to stop thinking that things only happen to us. Everyone gets embarrassed, everyone says dumb thing to the boy or girl you like, everyone drinks too much at least once in their life, and everyone has embarrassing questions that they are absolutely terrified to ask about because what if you get the response, “no, that never happened to me”. Tragic right? Wrong. That will never happen.

This is exactly why you need your girlfriends. The amount of girls nights filled with stories about boys, girls, family, stupid fights with friends, eating vast amounts of food, literally every topic you could imagine is uncountable. Who else are you supposed to go to when the boy you like is a bad kisser, or that date you went on was atrocious, or you have a question that you’re just a little too embarrassed to ask your mom about – you go to your girlfriends.

Some of the best nights have been gathered around with my girlfriends talking about absolutely everything and absolutely nothing. Just conversations jumping from one to another without any rhyme or reason beyond just “I don’t know. I wanted to talk about it”. These are the conversations that need to be had, not for your own sanity, but for everyone’s.

People are often too rigid about what they discuss because they’re embarrassed that no one can relate to them or they sound ridiculous. And, as I’ve stated before, that never happens. Someone will always out-stupid you, out-ridiculous you, out-everything you. That’s the beauty of having these kinds of conversations, you only learn more about yourself and your best friends while being more comfortable with who you are and all of the ridiculousness that comes with you.

Be proud of your crazy and share what you got.

Kim K gets it.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
