14valentines time again! For those of you who aren't aware of it, 14v is a community dedicated to spending the first 14 days of February raising awareness about issues and organizations directly connected and relating to women and women's issues. I really encourage you to click the daily links, to consider the topics being brought up, and to enjoy the fic, graphics, recs, and much more that the community has to offer. :)Brace yourselves kids, I have almost a thousand icons to post over the next two weeks. \o/

For those of you wondering what the theme is, I'd like to introduce you to Miss Katie Kay: tribal belly dancer, designer, model, and the tour manager for the Dresden Dolls (she also toured with Panic at the Disco on the Nothing Rhymes With Circus tour). I happen to think she's insanely beautiful, and don't you think it was time that some belly dance icons showed up here anyway? *grin*

To me, there is nothing quite so quintessentially American as the Converse All-Star. I've been having a mad love affair with this shoe since I was 10 years old; my style is black high-tops, when they get older and more beat-up, I start wearing them with the tops turned down. My first pair had sunflowers on the lining, and yes, I do remember buying my first pair. I always feel a little bit more prepared to deal with whatever the world throws at me when I've got my Chucks on. I love these shoes, and I know I'm far from the only person who feels that way; the 46,000 images at flickr back me up on that one. So here, my lovesong to America and the All-Star. Hope you like. :)

14valentines[Day 7] Sexual Assault
I'm going to quote last year's closing essay here, because a year later, it still makes me cry.
"I was raped, but I survived and you will too."
One in six, people. Your sister, your teacher, your neighbor.
You. Me. We are strong. We will survive.

Images from seriously all over the net. Remember how I mentioned a few posts ago that I'd found a new fandom? *g* I was just sitting there one day, blissfully ignorant, and then the next thing I knew, my last.fm account had been taken over by Fueled by Ramen bands and My Chemical Romance. I knew it wasn't worth fighting anymore when I realized that I actually liked Panic(!)'s music, totally without a sense of irony. You'll be seeing icons of MCR, the band closest to my heart, later this week, just for the record. ;)
But yes.
