Your daughter just got her first period.
Do not tell her she is a woman now.
Tell her what estrogen does.
Tell her what progesterone does.
Tell her her cycle has four phases and each one will feel different.
Give her information. Not a new identity.
Clicks and idk why😭😭😭it’s so appealing and I’m more likely to spend more at clicks than at Dischem because when I’m in dischem I get what I need and leave, clicks is so beautiful that you’ll end up going around the whole beauty section😭
I will never participate in the inhumane way misogyny views women. NEVER.
A virgin woman and a sex worker have the same value and dignity. FULL STOP.
That is how I view all women, equally.
The trigger has been removed.
The person causing the stress has left their lives. This reduces cortisol and it’s easier for her to stop stress eating amongst other things.
You people underestimate the effect a ‘bad’ partner can have on a person.
I just remembered how excited I was to stop using pencils and start writing with a pen in Primary 3. Funny how the smallest things felt like major milestones back then.
If only I knew 😭
If a man asked me this, my first thought would be that he’s a loser and won’t be seeing me again because why are you obsessed with stranger’s lives to this extent?
A little girl in Boston went home one day and asked her Nigerian mother if she could change her name to Zoe.
Nobody at school could say Uzoamaka.
Her mother was cooking. She didn't even turn around.
"If they can learn to say Tchaikovsky, Michelangelo, and Dostoyevsky, they can learn to say Uzoamaka."
That girl kept her name.
Then she went to Hollywood and won three Emmy Awards.
And now the whole world knows exactly how to say Uzoamaka Aduba.
Your name is not a burden. It's a prophecy.
