Red Hots!

It's hard to imagine a time when women weren't paid the same as men, much less even offered the chance to vote! One of my grandmother's was quite the rebel when she decided to get buy her own business in the 1930s! And In the 60s, when my mom went for her masters degree, loads of men told her she shouldn't do it. Like, seriously? Chicks rock!

But today, sexism is (hopefully) a thing of the past, and to celebrate, the Lipstick Queen herself, Poppy King, has made a gorgeous fire engine red gloss -- Fabulously called FIRED UP! The sensible but bold shade is only $14 and proceeds of every stick sold will benefit Count Me In, the leading national not-for-profit provider to support chick entrepreneurs. It's only available at Lipstickqueen.com, and makes quite the perfect holiday pressie for your BFFs!

Have you ever been discriminated against because you're a girl? Tell your story below, and get Fired Up about our rights as girls! Or just get Fired Up! It's super hot.
