If only we were this cool in high school.

While we would have been busy planning schoolies, 17-year-old Caitlyn Cannon has feminism and the gender pay gap on her mind.

The new graduate of California’s Oak Hills High School – who describes herself on Twitter as a feminist and “really gay” submitted this pearler for her yearbook:

Caitlyn said she adapted a quote she found online because she wanted to make a real point.

“I had no idea it would even be seen anywhere other than the yearbook, much less by thousands of people on Twitter!” Caitlyn told Cosmopolitan.

“While it would have been fun to submit something funny or silly, I think it was even more rewarding to submit the truth, and call some attention to it.”

Well played, Caitlyn.
