#nomenatall Men, please work with us not against us. Sarah Everard did everything right, made choices for her safety that every woman you know has made. Enough is enough.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! Today is all about celebrating the achievements of womankind and bringing their stories into the limelight. We're mad for #ElizabethGarrettAnderson (as if it wasn't obvious already). Who inspires you?

#DidYouKnow Elizabeth Garrett Anderson rejected her first marriage proposal because she believed it would damage her career? 💔 We're not in the 19th Century anymore but the 'Career vs Love' debate still rages for some. Have you ever had to make the choice? #ValentinesDay

What would make you feel more safe? As @CCriadoPerez says in her incredible book #invisiblewomen the word is designed with male as the default setting. Elizabeth Garrett Anderson fought against this default but we still have a long way to go. #feminism instagram.com/p/B7YoRb-I2YQ/…

Stand up for what you believe in and surround yourself with like minded people. Elizabeth Garrett Anderson stood up against sexism alongside Millicent Fawcett and Emily Davies, be more like Elizabeth and don't retreat! #feminism #musicals #rosaparks instagram.com/p/B7aWeHXAiZ_/…

If you have something to day then write! Don't tell the world stifle your voice. #hamilton #writers #musicals #believe #feminist x.com/HamiltonMusical/status…

I wanna talk about what I have learned, the hard-won wisdom I have earned.
Couldn't agree with @QueenDFDubz more. When Elizabeth was at Middlesex Hospital the men petitioned not to let her in despite the fact that she was running rings round them. If you have privilege use it to help those who are don't. #feminism #change x.com/DeborahFW/status/12172…

Wise words from @nicolegoodman34 If Elizabeth hadn't believed in herself she would never have become the UK's first female doctor. Only by believing in yourself will you inspire others to believe in you too. x.com/nicolegoodman34/status…

Women are incredible, that is without question. In a world where women do much more unpaid work than men, @jaydewestaby doesn't just excel on the stage, she smashes parenthood as well, much like Elizabeth Garrett Anderson did. Keep being amazing! instagram.com/p/B7VmNbmnKMi/…
