Heard of these Riot Girrrls?
Sex and Fessenjoon girls “push boundaries” by their “shamelessly sharing stories/escapades.” And I’ve had the honor of sitting down with them to share my own shameless story of being a crazy Iranian-American woman:

I am so proud of them for questioning the assumptions and breaking the taboos of our lives, community and diaspora. But above that, I’m so proud of them for first, loving their heritage and culture for what it is, so seriously that they care to write about it, but not serious enough to not to be able to laugh at it. These Girrrls get it!
