A pose frequently avoided because it communicates defensiveness. In this case, you do want to defend women’s rights and autonomy. This pose was chosen as part of the International Women’s Day theme and you can post a pic of yourself doing the same to show solidarity for the #BreaktheBias campaign. The Equality Filter will cast the IWD’s purple theme color over your photo for a pointed statement.
Raised Fists

A classic pose of resistance, a raised fist or two communicates frustration and anger at the lack of gender equality. The raised fist represents the ongoing fight against injustices and the long way we still have to go to #BreaktheBias against women. The Tenacity Filter makes an impact in black and white and takes the frivolity of color away.
Akimbo

If you want your pose to smack of defiance, try a sassy hands on the hip pose. Commonly used to communicate pride, aggression or non-compliance, the akimbo pose has predominance among women already. The Vitality Filter casts a brightening light over your photo to symbolize the attention we welcome to the #BreaktheBias cause.
Palms Up
