Because I am a Girl I ask…Why are women so much more self-critical than men?

Because I am a Girl I believe…In the law of attraction - you get what you put your energy and focus on, whether wanted or unwanted.

Because I am a Girl I hope…the term ‘third world country’ gets put to bed.

Because I am a Girl I wonder…if it’d be easier to be a boy.

Because I am a Girl I dream…of virtual to-do lists, the hamster in my head never sleeps!

Because I am a Girl I remember…the insults but forget the compliments.

Because I am a Girl I like…hugs, flattery, roses, tearjerkers…

Because I am a Girl I dislike…taking my makeup off before bed (but not enough to stop using it!)

Because I am a Girl I feel…lucky to have all my loved ones around me.

Because I am a Girl I celebrate…the kind, loving, nurturing, beautiful, complicated creatures us girls truly are.

  • Because I am a Girl...

    I have a much higher chance of making headline news - as a victim of rape, assault or murder. But because I am a girl I have the innate strength to carry on challenging the threats to my freedom.

  • Because I am a Girl...

    I rise to the challenge, and do the unexpected. I raise my voice so that I can always be heard. I push myself even when the little voices in my head are saying, sure you dont belong here, who do you think you are. I struggle on and dont alllow society to to label or box me because of the sex I am, the colour of my skin, my sexuality, my spiritual beliefs. I am, and I will.
