Since today is International Women's Day and everything, I thought it would be fitting to take a look at the riot grrrl revival on tumblr. While I'm critical of it now, it was my introduction to social justice issues and feminism, and it's funny to look back on it. As a young teen, it was hard not to get sucked in by cute little pins and graphics with "girl power!" written on them, leading me to self-identify as a feminist without really knowing what feminism was, and basing my political views over whatever the hell I was seeing on my tumblr dashboard.
