Women shouldn’t own property. They’re inferior & aren’t capable. Pardon our language… but F*CK that. Can you believe that this used to be the norm? The LAW? Today is International Women Day. Today we celebrate how far we have ALL come as we may not all be women, but we ALL have mothers, sisters, wives, daughters, close female colleagues and friends- and we all should want to promote a world that values equality.

Here’s to all the women before us who experienced hardship, to all the men and women who fought to change this, and to all the badass females who are proving that equality should exist. 💕 #women #bossbabes #bossbabesunite #womeninternationalday #equality #badasswomen

In continuing with our celebration of Women’s History Month, we asked YCBF President Christy Fawcett what advice she has for aspiring women in the legal field. #WomensHistoryMonth "A lawyer should be intellectual, empathetic, and have an understanding of the complexities and nuances of the people they deal with. Because they often follow non-traditional life and career paths, women frequently excel in these areas. If you want to be a force for positive change and be a leader in your community, become an attorney!"
