A lot of girls learned early that the more feminine you are, the less you’re respected. It was never about pink. It was about the fear that being feminine meant being taken less seriously.
Healing is realizing you can be feminine and still be untouchable. The day you realize that, you stop running from the girly things you denied yourself and start enjoying them like they were always yours.
“Out of ten men,
one makes a sexual joke directed at a woman,
two laugh alone,
three don’t find it funny but still chuckle to fit in,
four say nothing, they pretend they didn’t hear it at all.
Not a single one speaks up,
not a single one stops it.
Later, aside from the man who made the joke, the other nine all believe the same thing - men like that are a minority, most men aren’t like this.
They all see themselves as part of the good majority.
But from the woman’s perspective, the one being harassed, there is no big difference between them.
The laughter, the silence, the looking away - all of it creates the same environment.
So when women say most men are the same, this is what they mean. Not every man harasses women but most men participate in protecting the system that does.”

As a feminist you start to see life through an entirely different lens. Your whole perspective shifts and you can’t move through the world the same way again. Things other people laugh off or don’t even notice stand out so clearly and suddenly you’re "the woke friend" who can’t
