Salla
Because a large part of my childhood and youth have been influenced by
men who are emotionally unstable/wrecked or just opinionated chauvinists.
(not putting all the blame on men, I had a very dominating mother to
boost)The result was me being at total loss of who I really am. And
constantly picking the wrong men who tended to use me or/and put me down
and destroy my self-esteem. It is only a few years back that I realized
I can do whatever I wish to do, and excel at it. That I'm not dependent
on men, and I can rely on solely myself and be happy, that I can have my
own opinions and keep them.
To put it shortly, I finally discovered who
I am. And that I can be happy with that person, and not feel guilty
about it. At last I am happy with ME, and now I am strong, confident and
determined to change my life, and do what I want do with my life.. And I
also agree with the manifesto. I've had it with women who are dependant
on men/relationships and men who don't know themselves and put down
women as a result.
I am a feminist and proud of it. I've even thought to
start a feminist party, like in Sweden (though that hasn't gone through
yet) to oppose the obnoxious right wing in parliament, which consists of
men, trying to prevent singles and lesbians having a right to have
artificial insemination, on grounds that it's not right for women to
have babies without men. Enough said about that, there's a lot more to
it, but this is getting a bit long. All in all, I am ready to join HBI!
(And just to be clear, I don't hate men, I hate idiots who... well, the list is long)
