Icelandic women have long played important roles in shaping the nation’s culture and history, reflecting its beautiful landscapes, rich traditions, and strong focus on equal rights. In this article, we’ll explore how they continue to influence the country today.

Icelandic feminists have found a new, very unlikely, role model: Miss Iceland 2015. Arna Ýr Jónsdóttir was told she was too fat to take part in a beauty pageant, but she didn't cave in and go on a diet, break down and develop anorexia or tell the pageant organisers to go to hell - she just politely but firmly decided to stand up for herself - and sent a strong message to the objectifying, beauty obsessed world we live in today. Beauty pageants have been criticised for years all over the world, and Iceland is no exception to that. Iceland was mostly famous for ‘having the most beautiful wo
Breastfeeding in public is not a big deal in Iceland. Turns out, other countries think it is a big deal. Yesterday an MP in Iceland, Unnur Brá Konráðsdóttir, gave a speech at the Althingi Parliament. Another MP was giving statements on a bill that she put forward to which she had to respond. So obviously, she got up and responded. It just so happens that when she had to get up to respond, her daughter, who's six weeks old, was feeding. So she took her daughter along to the podium and breastfed her whilst addressing the parliament on live TV. Breastfeeding babies is one of the most natur

My friend actually got married a year ago, but it was a secret and only the closest family members were present (and they didn't even know about it!) Her closest friends decided however to still have a hen-do for her and we d
If you're coming to Iceland in search of seeing some women taking their clothes off in a strip-joint, you'll be sorely disappointed. However, you can catch a play about an Icelandic stripper at Tjarnarbíó theatre from the 24th of August until the 16th of September 2016.

The play is co-authored between Olga Sonja Thorarensen (and based on her own true story
