The way people respond to a bubbly personality really concerns me. Ever since I was a kid I noticed how people try to break your spirit when you’re too nice, too happy, too outgoing, too friendly. People that wanna know why you’re so gung-ho are unwell and are out to get you
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.
i actually think "surface level" friendships are very healthy. not everyone in your life has to be your ride or die. some friends are for the gym. some are for going out. some are just for complaining about work or bureaucracy. when you stop expecting everyone to be your everything, the disappointment disappears. those deep convos and connections are for the 2-3 people closest to you
Just saw a video of this little boy asking his mom if the reason she can’t buy him a doll is because she doesn’t think he can be a father.
And now that I think about it, maybe that’s why men think being a parent is optional because they never imagined it from a young age
I read novels for entertainment. I’m not trying to memorise anything, and once I put the book down, most of the details fade away.😅
Ask me what happened a day later, and there’s a good chance I won’t remember. But while I’m reading it, I’m completely immersed; that enjoyment is what matters to me.
Please raise your daughters to have hobbies, interests, and academics...so when they become adults and middle-aged women they have something to talk about besides a man.
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.
I really love ADHD people because they never actually forget anything. You just have to say the right words to activate them like a sleeper cell and then they awaken with all of the knowledge on a very niche subject they studied for 3 months straight 6 years ago.
You really gotta put yourself on a certain pedestal. Like yes you’re better than that, you’re bigger than that, you can’t be associated with that, you can’t entertain that, etc. I AM actually too good for a lot of shit and I say that with confidence & assurance 💕
Imagine walking into Pick ‘n Pay & there are no price tags on the goods. Every time you want to know the price of something, a member of staff takes you to the back & whispers in your ear.
That's how silly you look when you say “DM for price.”
