Here at Sassy, we support women’s rights and\u00a0<\/em>wrongs.<\/h2>\n

As a publication founded, built and powered by women<\/strong>, International Women\u2019s Day is kind of a big deal around here. There’s nothing we love more than highlighting all things female, whether that means hyping up their achievements<\/strong> or backing causes<\/strong> that dare to shake things up.<\/p>\n

Attaining representation is one thing \u2014 we love seeing women like Bar Mind founders<\/a> Jo Lo and Birs Wong finding their place in male-dominated industries<\/a> \u2014 but achieving full equality is still an upward battle. From constant antagonism on social media<\/a><\/strong> and being dismissed by healthcare<\/a><\/strong> providers to downright misogyny, there is no shortage of obstacles we face. Keep scrolling to read the full stories, plus unmissable IWD events<\/strong><\/a>, inspiring stories and women’s health<\/strong> tips<\/a>.<\/p>\n
