Women are always saying sorry, but how often do we really need to? To celebrate International Women’s Day, Freeform is bleeping the word ‘sorry’ to encourage women to stop apologizing when they don’t need to.

From 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. EST, Freeform will edit out nearly 50 utterances of “sorry” on shows including grown-ish, The Bold Type, and Alone Together. According to a network press release, this is to encourage women “to be unapologetically bold, daring, confident and powerful.
