Badass women never settle.
The idea of being a badass isn’t always clear, but, honestly, it’s a universal understanding that all women are badass. Life isn’t easy for us, so we’re made tougher and stronger by the constant hurdles we have to jump just to get through life.
Badass women are fearless and free. They follow their own rules and don’t put up with anything that isn’t worth their time.
Most importantly, badass women don’t stand for anything that hurts them or others. So, if you truly want to be a badass woman, here are 10 things you shouldn’t be standing for.
A badass woman will never ever let anyone treat her like she’s below them. She’s a strong, empowered woman and she knows it. She knows what she brings to the table, so if someone is treating her unfairly, she’s not going to let the person get away with it. Equality is important to a badass woman, so if she’s being treated poorly, she’s definitely going to call it out.
No badass woman will stand for a relationship that destroys her and brings her down. She only ever surrounds herself with empowering and supportive people. This type of woman isn’t going to allow any man or woman make her feel less than because she knows her own worth.
When it comes to friendships or relationships, a badass woman isn’t going to surround herself with people who can’t appreciate her strength and hard work. Again, she knows what she’s capable of and if others can’t see it, then she’s just going to move on with her life and leave them in the past.
A badass woman will never settle. She understands that the minute she accepts less than she deserves, she will only ever receive less. She shoots for the stars and is constantly breaking glass ceilings. Most importantly, by constantly striving for better, she’s also growing and helping herself.
A badass woman doesn’t have time for other women who don’t support and lift other women up. She dedicates herself to uplifting the women in her life, and if someone is stepping on other women to get ahead, she’s not going to put up with it. She knows the importance and beauty of helping others, which is what makes her so amazing. But, don’t worry, even if you’re not supporting other women, she’ll still be there when you need her because, again, she’s all about supporting all women no matter what.
Like one of the most badass women in history, Sojourner Truth, all badass women should care about advocating for marginalized groups. This means helping others in need in any way you possibly can. A badass woman isn’t going to stand for anyone who doesn’t use their voice for good.
She’s powerful on her own, she doesn’t need you to come to her rescue. She can fight her own battles and open her own jars of sauce. Really, she can do it all. She’s gotten this far on her own, she doesn’t need you now.
A truly badass woman has fought to find her value. It’s taken years of building herself up in a world that is constantly trying to knock her down to understand her worth, so she’s not going to stand for anyone that doesn’t respect this fact about her.
She is always striving for greatness, so not having the opportunity to live up to her potential isn’t going to cut it for a badass woman. A badass woman is only trying to become a better version of herself, so she refuses to stand for anything that gets in her way.
Under no circumstances will a badass woman choose to take up less space to comfort other people. She will not lessen herself or hide parts of herself. She is unapologetically herself. Overall, she dresses, acts and speaks however she pleases because no one controls her.
Not all badass women are the same but all badass women have the same beliefs and standards. At the end of the day, all badass women don’t just stand for anything and anyone. Their choices are carefully thought out and decided. So, if you’re looking to be a fearless woman, always stand for what matters and stick to your decisions every time.
