The more people say “a woman’s worth is in marrying young and having children” the more I’m grateful for the example of Jane Austen, who turned down a proposal of marriage so she could keep writing and whose six novels are an enduring testament to all a woman is capable of doing.
I was walking infront of a lady on my way from the shops then suddenly turned back because I realised I'd forgotten something. The woman literally froze. I tried to reassure her but she couldn't even respond. She was shaking all over. Men and women inhabit different worlds.
Women couldn’t have their own credit until 1974. Marital rape became illegal nationwide in 1994.
We are ONE generation into women having a CHANCE at life & it’s proved so intolerable America would rather end itself than allow such a thing to continue.
