One of the things that makes me a Heartless Bitch is my ability to adapt, cope and than bounce back, all with a smile-
I am an Aboriginal woman and make no apologies for this... that irritates a lot of white women. I have yet to figure that one out, and I don't really care to either.
I work within the Aboriginal community in restorative/alternative justice. I have come close to being arrested for stepping in to help my brothers on the street when the cops are bugging out. I know I couldn't look myself in the mirror if I walked past my brothers and sisters in trouble when they cannot help themselves.
I have had an uneasy life, but to be perfectly honest, I am glad for the struggles. Trust me when I tell you my shoulders are broad, my back is covered and I don't slow down to wait for weakness.
I drink bourbon when I want to, swear if I need to and am not afraid to take the consequences of my actions. I grew up in a patriarchal Irish Catholic house (adopted) and I will be damned if I will let that shit run my life-
I get flak from the community because I date a black man (gasp!) and am not "traditional" whatever that means. I can't figure out for the life of me, why who does what between my legs is anybody's business but my own, but apparently it is... not.
I am a feminist; I am opposed to racism, oppression and stupidity.
That is part of what makes me a quintessential Heartless Bitch.
Yes! I want to read more from Real Life Heartless Bitches
