Racheal
I can't stand people who judge themselves on what other people think of
them. Sure, of course I care what others think of me, but I don't let it
rule my life. I take it in my stride and keep on walking.
Those girls, who date assholes and whinge about it, get none of my time.
I refuse to tell people what they want to hear. I tell them what I
think. If they want someone to stroke their ego and tell them a lie,
they know not to come to me, this applies to both men and women.
I am always seeking intelligent conversation. Something that just seems
to be getting harder to find.
I have no problems with giving my opinion when asked or when it is just
too hard to stay quiet. I spent years observing the women around me; how
they adhered to the patriarchal society they were raised to adhere to.
By the time I was 9 I'd decided I didn't want to do what someone told me
to just because they were of a certain gender, at the time I was
oblivious to the concept of feminism. Now I walk with my head held high
proud to say I am a Heartless Bitch. I am proud to stand up and say that
women may not have died for their rights the way men have in the past,
but they found a way to gain their rights without the need to die. I am
proud to say that my great-grandmother was a feminist unafraid of
fighting for her rights. She worked her way up in a mostly men dominated
field to accomplish her dreams. If it wasn't for the pioneers of
feminism, I would not be the strong independent woman I am today.
I am not a victim. I am in control of my life. I am powerful and I know
how to use my brain instead of my boobs to get ahead in this life. I am
responsible for my life and I accept that responsibility with pleasure,
because it means that I will never be unhappy, If I make a bad choice at
least I know it was MINE.
Yes! I want to read more from Real Life Heartless Bitches
