Women 2 Drive x Saudi Arabia

We have searched for laws that prohibit women in Saudi Arabia from exercising their right to drive their own vehicle but have not found anything that points to such [a prohibition] in Saudi traffic laws. Therefore, what we will do cannot be considered a violation of the law. We therefore have decided that beginning on Friday the 15th of Rajab, 1432, which corresponds to the 17th of June, 2011:

• Every women in possession of an international driver’s license or one from another country will begin driving her car herself whether to reach her place of work, drop her children off at school, or attend to her daily needs.
• We will take photographs and videotapes of ourselves driving our cars and post them to our Facebook page in order to support our cause: I will drive starting June 17
• We will adhere to the dress code (hijab) while driving.
• We will obey the traffic laws and will not challenge the authorities if we are stopped for questioning.
• If we are pulled over we will firmly demand to be informed of which laws have been violated. Until now there is not one traffic law that prohibits a woman from driving her own vehicle herself.
• We do not have destructive goals and will not congregate or protest, nor will we raise slogans. We have no leaders or foreign conspirators. We are patriots and we love this country and will not accept that which encroaches on its security and safety. All that is involved [in this matter] is that we will begin to exercise our legitimate right.
• We will not stop exercising this right until you find us a solution. We have spoken out on too many occasions and no one has listened to us. The time for solutions has come. We want women’s driving schools. We want Saudi drivers’ licenses [for women] like all other countries in the world. We want to live a complete form of citizenship without the humiliation and degradation that we are [currently] subjected to everyday because of our dependence on a driver.
• We will launch volunteer campaigns to offer free driving lessons for women beginning on the date that this announcement is issued and we wish for everyone to support us.

Woman Abuse is a widespread societal problem. It is a form of power and control. Woman abuse can take many forms. Women from all age groups, racial and ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations, socio-economic classes, religions, ability levels and professions experience abuse. *all stats from pcawa.org

- 1 in 4 women will experience abuse in an intimate relationship in their lifetime

- 38% of sexually assaulted women were assaulted by their husbands, common-law partners, or boyfriends

- 21% of women abused in an intimate relationship are abused during pregnancy

- 40% of women with disabilities have been or are in an abusive relationship

- Only 26% of woman abuse incidents are reported to the police

In an average year, 78 women are killed by their husbands or partners

Costs to Society—Abuse Affects us All!

- Women who have experienced violence were three times more likely to take time off from their every day activities

- In 1995, the estimated annual health-related costs associated with violence against women were $1.5 billion

HA! Palin can eat a dick. She’s too dumb to understand his words. I play this for you...

Beyonce lets on the new name of her album “4″ in the latest issue of Billboard magazine.

The new album is called “4.” Aside from this being your fourth solo album, what significance does that number hold?

We all have special numbers in our lives, and 4 is that for me. It’s the day I was born. My mother’s birthday, and a lot of my friends’ birthdays, are on the fourth; April 4 is my wedding date.

How did the creative process begin with the new body of work?


I recorded more than 60 songs: everything I ever wanted to try, I just did it. I started off being inspired by [Afrobeat music pioneer] Fela Kuti. I actually worked with the band from “Fela!” [the hit Broadway musical based on his life] for a couple of days, just to get the feel for the soul and heart of his music; it’s so sexy, and has a great groove you get lost in. I loved his drums, all the horns, how everything was on the one. What I learned most from Fela was artistic freedom: he just felt the spirit. I also found a lot of inspiration in ’90s R&B, Earth, Wind & Fire, DeBarge, Lionel Richie, Teena Marie… I listened to a lot of Jackson 5 and New Edition, but also Adele, Florence + the Machine, and Prince. Add in my hip-hop influences, and you can hear how broad it is. I also gave myself more freedom to really belt out some songs, and bring soul singing back: I used a lot of the brassiness and grittiness in my voice that people hear in my live performances, but not necessarily on my records.

Listen: Bob Marley

Bob Marley on how to love a woman

“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s not perfect - you aren’t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there.”

- Bob Marley

You look AMAZE!!!!!

Behind The Scenes of Karla "hustleGRL" Moy's Birthday Photoshoot from Karla Moy on Vimeo.

My business partner and I recently wardrobe styled Karla Moy for a project associated with her upcoming birthday extravaganza. Here's some behind the scenes footage that I wanted to share. It was a fun day of glitz and glam and we draped her in all of the luxuries that any woman would love! If you have no clue who HustleGRL is, then you need to google her and educate yourself. Not only is she a self made business woman (she's only 18 btw), but her extensive resume consists of some of the most high profile people in the world. She's an inspiring individual and an overall amazing person. If you need a graphic designer, she's your girl!
