This t-shirt is more than just a piece of clothing to us. The statement stands for uncompromising femininity that no one has to apologize for. It means that femininity has its place in everyone, women as well as non-binary and male people. We are committed to the equal participation of all people in business, society, politics and the media. This also means that no one should ever apologize for their feminine attributes, even if society (still) tells us to. We aim to ensure that all womxn and non-binary people can live economically independent and self-determined lives.
The fact that women have the same opportunities and rights is unfortunately not something that can be taken for granted historically. It is only in recent years and decades that women have won a multitude of rights.
Among them (in Germany):
Rights for Queer People in Germany
“Never before have women been granted rights that they did not demand. They have never been given freedoms, or at most granted them. And they were only ever given as many opportunities as they were prepared to claim with all their power – and for which they were prepared to fight.”
Bascha Mika, Essay*

Sorry. Not Sorry.
With the “Unapologetic Femality” shirt, we want to visibly unite women and female-identifying people in a proud community. We explicitly want to be unapologetic about the feminine as a discriminatory marker, not the biological sex. The shirt is intended to remind us again and again that the rights won by women and the LGBTQI* community cannot be taken for granted. Wear your “Unapologetic Femality” shirt at the herCAREER Expo – Europe’s most important career and networking event – and show that together we stand up for a world of equity and equality.
