I had always been an independent girl, but I never knew about any larger movement having to do with this tension I felt about being confined to gender roles.<\/p>\n<p>In my senior year of high school, I had an English literature teacher, Mrs. Butcher. Mrs. Butcher was one of those cool, young teachers who high school students want to pattern their lives after. She was a strong and confident woman, committed to her faith and not afraid to speak the truth. She was both unflinching in her critique of the patriarchy and an avid wearer of bright lipstick. In short, she spoke my language. Mrs. Butcher introduced our class to feminist literature, and my mind was opened. These authors wrote about things I had been thinking my whole life but never been able to name. They taught me that there were words for this strength in me; this deep personal resistance I felt towards antiquated gender norms. The things I read in this class set me on a path of liberation, not only for myself but for other women, particularly in the context of the Church.<\/p>\n<p>While feminism and gender equality require us to practically engage with and for both women and men, we\u2019d be remiss to not read the writings of the women who shape and power the movement both inside and outside of the Church. Here are just a few books that I would recommend for anyone on the journey to claiming gender equality.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/bge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2016\/05\/bad-feminist.jpg\" rel=\"prettyPhoto[2340]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-2345\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/bge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2016\/05\/bad-feminist-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"bad feminist\" width=\"151\" height=\"228\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/bge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2016\/05\/bad-feminist-199x300.jpg 199w, http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/bge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2016\/05\/bad-feminist.jpg 429w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 151px) 100vw, 151px\" \/><\/a><\/strong>Gay is the new darling of feminist literature, and she\u2019s earned it.
