reminder that Boy Moms™️ who “unconditionally support” their sons and turn a blind eye to their wrong doing/enable their sons abuse, are just another way that women will uphold the patriarchy despite their best interests.
i’m no longer in my sad girl, healing era.
i’m in my playful exploration, applying knowledge, living out my lessons, forgiving quickly, love giving, friendship building, fun having, light as a feather era.
my heart deserves to be happy.
my life deserves joy.

I see so much mental health language weaponised: boundaries are not walls to avoid direct conversations or vulnerability. protecting your peace does not mean cutting off those who hold us accountable. being in survival mode is not an excuse to emotionally traumatise others.
a legal adult is 18 years old, grown men date 18 year olds. if it were 16, grown men would date 16 year olds. if it were 14, grown men would date 14 year olds. if it were 12, grown men would date 12 year olds.
these girls are absolutely right.
