What's my stance?

I think feminism is a great. Ladies, I agree we should all support each other and embrace our womanhood however, after seeing many posts regarding the "free the nipple" movement, I question whether or not some of you actually believe in what you say. I constantly see on social media teenage girls posting images of themselves half naked. I agree that a woman's body belongs to themselves and not for a man but face it... you're pictures are considered pornography! What gets me more frustrated is that some girls pose in certain ways so that their butt or boobs look more appealing. Is feminism a cover up for attention seekers? Very debatable. Cover up ladies, at least for the camera!

Another current issue I am interested in is college tuition. I think the price of going to college is ridiculous and I'm not sure why nothing is done to change that. As a senior heading to college, I really have to factor in money when choosing a school. No one should have to go through paying back a ton of loans!
