Again its a social thing but I need them to realize that they don't need the validation from guys
-
It's so frustrating because all girls schools worship the idea of feminism and female autonomy and dependence, but at their core they're run by people who don't really believe those values- and you can tell that they don't by the way that they teach girls.
Like its all about being your own person, until in the end, all anybody ever cares about are guys -
We say girlpower all through highschool and college until we graduate and end up with some guy that we have to depend on for everything because nobody likes it when we're independent and solitary
-
It's like saying "Be a feminist until you meet a guy that makes [ _____ amount of money ] and then abandon your entire future for him"
I feel like we need to actually inspire girls to be their own person because the idea/expectation that we need a husband and need a family is like embedded into our brains
Because people love it when girls are independent until a woman rejects the idea of having a man in her life then everybody gets angry -
Or like at some girls schools its like they want the girls to be scholars so that they can get into good colleges to meet a man who's gonna be a future businessman, banker, engineer, etc, and then rely on that same man's money to
And obviously do whatever you want and live how you'd like, but why educate yourself if you won't help the world -
Like they don't really want me to change the world, they want me to be good enough to meet a guy that I have to rely on
-
It's sort of like wanting a girl to go to Harvard so that she can meet a guy who's going to be successful in the future, not actually so that SHE can be successful
Obviously if a woman wants to live a life of comfort then she's free to, but people need to stop acting like women need men
And the double standards are crazy because they don't tell boys: "Go to a good college so that you can meet a woman."
No, they tell them to change the world. But we get told to find a nice husband who can make it so that we don't have to work -
We should be encouraged to change the world too
-
my mom is so unsupportive like my brother is having a really hard time and she takes out all her stress and anger on him by telling him that he'll never graduate or that he'll have to quit his sports and stuff
like I get he's not doing well right now but she's not being a good person to him -
I feel disappointed and not for reasons that I should be
just kind of not what I had hoped -
I'm fine with this happening to other people and I would never think it was a big deal if it weren't happening to me
but yeah I get it now its kind of hurting -
hoping and praying for change and for things to get better and this was supposed to make things that way but now instead its sending it in the opposite direction
-
Never ever set your expectations even remotely high
keep them as low as possible because you'll end up disappointed if not -
priorities
-
ugh it sucks but its me I don't think I could be any other way
