if there's one thing i have learned from the women before me, it is not to make huge life altering sacrifices for men. They do not deserve such loyalty and commitment

why tf is the pressure to “be the bigger person” always placed on the person who was wronged?

“Your loss.”
No babe. I have long term friendships. I'm close with my family. I heal without using anyone. I'm well educated. I'm comfortable with my own presence. I can stay single by choice. I can articulate and communicate my feelings well.

There's this Tiktok of a girl saying when , she's speaking to men she askes them do they want kids and then moves on, then later on she asks them about their dreams and their goals, they never mention the children so she pivots back to how they fit into their dreams and its crickets ...

Women are NOT rehabilitation centers for badly raised men.

When someone says "after all I have done for you..." they are revealing that what they did for you was not for you at all but for their own need to control you. Their generosity was a contract with hidden terms or agenda.

My own contribution to the society is not being a female bestie to any man. You are welcome girls❤️🥹

Males think they're brave enough to fight a gorilla but in reality they’re not even brave enough to tell their friend to stop making women uncomfortable.

I used to think that holding your tongue was a sign of maturity, but I realized that a true sign of growth and maturity is being able to vocalize your feelings in an appropriate manner even if you are angry. Holding your tongue just fosters unexpressed feelings that lead to

Nothing would piss me off like a man thinking he’s the best thing to ever happen to me

[𝓓𝓲𝓭𝓲🍒 @dsceptre82]

I’m very adamant about not having people around who repeatedly disrupt my nervous system through their lack of care, empathy, and consideration. Get away from me.

Coming to understand that for me, words can permanently change how safe a relationship feels. I believe that there are lines that should never be crossed, even in the middle of an argument.

Shoutout to men who still buy flowers drop off lunch. Fill your tank, open your door, rub your feet and plan dates & keep the relationship fresh. 🫡❤️🫶

If we’re being honest, the concept of community (within the African culture) strongly relies on the availability of women.

For instance, when women can’t do the chopping at funerals because they have other commitments (like work), a catering company will be hired. If a female relative can’t babysit, a nanny will be paid. Communities crumble when women can’t show up.

some people enter your life to show you how your boundaries need to be stronger than your empathy and love.

[Muna @Munalozy]

Got my salary.
Paid my bills.
Sent money to loved ones.
Rewarded myself with my favorite food.
Broke again.

Adulting hits really hard. 😔

People love saying women choose badly. Nobody ever seems interested in why there are so many terrible men available to choose from.

[goma @soigomaa]

Maturing is realizing they never burned witches. They burned midwives, healers, herbalists, and knowledgeable women.
Women who understood medicine, nature, and their own autonomy. Women whose knowledge threatened patriarchal control. The "witch hunts" were never about magic, they were about silencing women who couldn't be controlled.

In reality, hard work doesn’t always pay off. I’ve seen people work far harder than I do, only to achieve the same results or even less. Sometimes, the real skill is mastering the art of minimum input for maximum output.
