How I Became a Feminist

I have a really close friend back in elementary that I still kept in contact until now. We talk about the most random of things, and on one of our phone calls (he was studying in London then), we touched on the subject of advocacies. He was so passionate about his love for the environment, his passion to help the children in the country be educated. I was in awe and was struck in silence with how happy he sounded while talking about his advocacy, something he feels very passionate about. He, in turn, asked me, "what's your advocacy?" and I was taken aback. Flustered, I mainly said that I want to help old people (which is not a lie, I do have a soft heart for old people). Then I said to him truthfully, "I actually don't know what my advocacy is.." and he responded with, "well you have to feel passionate over something." And that moment I knew that I have to find what I am passionate about (aside from EXO that is.) factretriever
