My abortion is the kind people love to judge the most. I wasn’t underage, I wasn’t assaulted, and there was no medical emergency. I got pregnant because I knowingly had unprotected sex, no accident, no rare failure, just my own choices.
By their standards, it was “irresponsible.” I knew abortion was an option, and I took it. Not because I couldn’t survive it or raise a child, I simply didn’t want one. I wanted sex without becoming a parent, and I chose not to carry the pregnancy.
There’s no redemption arc here. I don’t regret it. Nothing terrible happened to me afterward, no punishment, no downfall. My life is still good. And that reality alone challenges everything people like to assume about women who make this choice.
I canceled a date because I wasn’t feeling great.
I told him the truth. My period had started, I was exhausted, and I was in one of those moods where even putting on jeans felt unreasonable.
I assumed we’d just reschedule.
Instead, he asked if he could stop by for a minute. I said yes.
A little while later he showed up at my door with ice cream and chocolate.
He handed me the bag, gave me a hug, said he hoped I felt better soon, and then left.
That was it.
No expectation that I entertain him. No attempt to turn it into a shortened date. No “well, I’m already here, so can I come in?” He just wanted to........
Y'all wanna know why I am so radical in my feminism?
Because I was literally 8 years old, wearing cute, childish shorts with unicorns in it, when I was cat called in such an horrid way by a man in passing car that my dad, whom I was walking hand in hand with, was genuily scared that the car would turn around and try to kidnap me. My parents never put shorts or skirts on me ever again.
My little sister recalls this incident, and many others that happened as I grew up as a kid with a little more curves than others, and she remembers telling my mom that she didn’t want to be "pretty" like me so no grown ass man would ever do that to her.
This is the world we live in.
houve uma mudança tão grande em sociedade nos últimos anos que precisamos voltar ao simples e dizer:
preconceito é ruim :(
matar mulheres é errado :(
tratar identidade como doença é errado :(
impor a sua religi��o e valores sobre a vida das pessoas é inadmissível :(
Diego Martins reflete sobre o machismo do homem gay em vídeo para o Dia Da Mulher:
“Você homem gay. Quando interrompe amiga na roda porque tem a voz mais alta, é machismo… Quando rivaliza mulheres pop, é machismo. Nós, gays, temos que parar de pensar que, por sermos gays, não somos machistas.”
