If it really was that much of a "curse" how come you're so proud of things?Don't get me wrong – I'm a feminist and I'm proud of who I am.
drop the "wo" in here and she nails it tbhBut just thinking about how much women are just societally expected to endure while being mocked and stigmatized is insane.
All of these complaints go out the window when chad enters the chat.Starting from periods which a lot of girls are taught to never speak of because it's somehow 'shameful'. You always have to be aware of your surroundings, you can't go out at night alone at all, you have to watch what you say, what you wear.
Same as aboveI want a longterm loving relationship but for women a relationship is always a high-stakes risk. Will this person hurt me? Will they abuse me? Will they take advantage of me?
As if your ilk don't have abortions on demand in most places, which according to data:Not to mention that our bodies can't turn off the baby-making function entirely, no birth control is a 100% guarantee.

Occurs just out of matter of inconvenience.
Well hey, you're the ones always claiming to be "strong queens"And in the modern world, women are expected to be perfect mothers, perfect wives, perfect workers...
In all likelihood, her grandma probably worked a secretary desk job while her grandpa worked something more physically & mentally exhaustingMy grandma used to come home from work and raise her kids, clean and cook, while my grandfather sat on the couch watching sports.
Again, drop the wo here & she nails itThank god they divorced but the idea of how easy it is to accidentally fall into this exhausting lifestyle as a woman is horrifying. And of course, no matter how hard a woman works, and no matter what path she chooses, she's always going to be judged.
Newsflash- it's actually kinda the same but way way worse for men now.Back in the day, women needed to rely on men because society forbade woman from being their own person and having their own life. Now there's literally no necessity for men to be in our lives except for companionship but it's so hard to live in a world where the old standards are dying but the new ones haven't been directly established yet.
