A Feminist Gift Guide

If you’re stressing about what to give this holiday season that supports women’s voices, I’ve got you!

I know this year I’m trying to be more thoughtful in my gift giving. I want to find meaningful gifts that aren’t just cheap, random stuff you find at a Black Friday sale. Plus, if it supports women writers, thinkers, entrepreneurs, and friends––all the better!

A Feminist Gift Guide

Let me be your Santa! Each item supports Exponent II, or a woman writer or entrepreneur from our Exponent community.

A Feminist Gift Guide for the Holidays 2024:

A Feminist Gift Guide

Subscription to Exponent II magazine— You can gift our magazine in digital or physical print! All you need is the recipient’s email. Best of all, every subscription helps this blog stay open. Do you have a stake president that needs to hear some more feminist voices? Send them a subscription! What about a friend that always “likes” your feminist reposts? What about the Relief Society sister that’s on the verge of a feminist awakening? Or how about yourself?! Go here for all the details.

Exponent II Merch— We’ve got a merch store this holiday season! Hats, shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, notebooks, and more. Items are comfy, cute, and show off your Exponent spirit. This is a great link to send to spouses for your own wishlist too. Proceeds help our organization stay up and running, including this blog. Go here to check out the merch.

Illuminating Ladies Coloring Book of Mormon Women— Do you get bored in church and wish you had something to color? Want to raise the next generation of LDS girls on feminist heroes instead of tired BoM men? This coloring book features women like Jane Manning James, Amy Brown Lyman, Julia Nompi Mavimbela, and Eliza R. Snow in original artwork. Check out the gorgeous coloring book here.

A Feminist Gift Guide

Book Holster— what’s cooler than wearing your book in a holster?! These are so fun and unique, plus handmade by our own editor, Rachel. Shop small and have fun sporting your current read here.

A Feminist Gift Guide

Book: Fifty Years of Exponent II— Learn about the history of our feminist organization from it’s earliest days. This nonfiction is packed with all the tea, details, and research that will satisfy any curious member of our community. Written by our own Katie and Heather (plus many essays and contributions from Exponent names you’ll recognize!), this book is a perfect read for history fans.

A Feminist Gift Guide

Donation to Exponent II— I love giving the gift of charity by sponsoring a donation in someone’s honor. You can donate to our nonprofit and support Exponent II! Maybe this year we all choose a patriarchal man and donate in his honor 😉 All donation gifts are tax deductible and go to keeping the blog running, our magazine printing, and the retreat retreating. If you love this space and reading our blogs, please consider donating so we can keep doing it!

  1. Oh my goodness! I love this! I gifted the Illuminating Ladies coloring book to my secretary and counselors when I was Primary President. Such wonderful gift ideas. Thank you.

  2. Great list! I’m going to ask Santa for the Fifty Years of Exponent II, and if he doesn’t come through, I’m just going to buy it myself, because it sounds super cool!
