#IWD2016: Today is #InternationalWomensDay, a day to support women, celebrate women, encourage women and inspire the change for equality. My name is Rachel Moore, I was born and raised in Southern California, I love to scuba dive/spear fish, rock climb, travel and adventure whenever possible. I went to school for biology and scuba dove for the Channel Islands National Park Service for three years before I switched to modeling full time. I met my husband six years ago and from that day forward we started planning a sailing trip around the world. We started with less than $1000 between the two of us after we got married and worked hard and saved every penny until we could afford a sailboat. Two years ago we found and purchased our boat Agape and have been living aboard now for a year. We plan to leave this October for a 5 year circumnavigation! #GoPro #GoProGirl

El Instituto Municipal para la Igualdad y el Desarrollo de las Mujeres (IMIDM) presentó en el auditorio DIF la obra "Las mujeres hablan" protagonizada por nuestra compañera Andrea Fernanda Guerrero Fentanes.
Esta puesta en escena nos adentra al universo femenino donde se pueden apreciar los pros y contras de ser mujer.
María, la siempre virgen, pura y santa defenderá a los hombres. Por su parte, Eva la primer mujer sobre la tierra, fue hecha para reproducirse, sensual, sexual y atractiva, pero está muy enojada por todo lo que los hombres les han hecho.
Estas dos mujeres tan importantes de la historia son mandadas a la vagina de la última mujer embarazada para asignar el sexo de la criatura que está a punto de nacer. ¿Hombre o mujer? Si es hombre la historia de la humanidad se termina y si es mujer sería una nueva oportunidad para repoblar la tierra. #IWD2016 #DiaInternacionalDeLaMujer #TodosSomosDIF #TDB #InclusiónSocial
