Women have been fighting for equal rights for close to 200 years. My ancestors are probably rolling over in their graves! The women in my family are strong, intelligent, independent and steadfast. They are, and were known for fighting for their rights and fighting for their lives.
I am NOT the kind of woman whose “AMERICAN DREAM” is to be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen! If and when I have a family, I’ll be a fabulous mother. But I am not going to be a mother depicted from a black and white, stereotypical television show; wearing an apron over a dress, and heels while baking and folding laundry.
Thanks to all of the strong women of our pasts, I am in school, which women had to fight to get the privilege to do. Why! Because men ruled the country and believed they deserved rights that women didn’t. They believed women should be seen and not heard. SORRY! I’m loud! And I am seen! And will be SEEN and HEARD!
a little glimpse of our past 1831
United States: As a private institution in 1831, Mississippi College became the first coeducational college in the United States to grant a degree to a woman. In December 1831 it granted degrees to two women, Alice Robinson and Catherine Hall.[31]
1921:
United States: Sadie Tanner Mossell became the first African-American woman to earn a Ph.D. in the U.S. when she earned a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania.[158]
There’s a reason why women were given a uterus and not men! Men wouldn’t know how to handle what we go through every month! They wouldn’t know how to handle the complications we can have from having a uterus! I dare you go bleed consistently and heavily for 7-10 days straight. Wake up to blood soaked sheets. While working, room a patient and then immediately run to the closest bathroom because you just ruined yet another pair of underwear, then tell me what to do with my uterus. Pay for my pads, tampons, period panties, and wipes. Take away my cramps! And monthly migraines, utter fatigue, and anemia! And I dare you to tell me that my being cranky is in my head and having my period is just an excuse!
You won’t. But you will tell me what I can and can‘t do to my body. You will tell me that if I have an unplanned pregnancy, I have to keep it. That if I become pregnant and my fetus is not viable, and my body does not terminate the pregnancy on its own, I have to carry this dead baby full term, and deliver this dead baby.
Why is it up to a woman to go on birth control?
Why is that not even an option for a man?? (Let’s go big pharma! You made a C-19 vaccine in no time!)
Why do women have to be the responsible for putting medication into her body to prevent a pregnancy and the man can ….. wear a condom? No side effects for him! but who cares about the side effects for a woman.
Birth control options:
Abstinence - have fun men
Take a pill a day
Get injections
Get an IUD IMPLANTED (Because I want to feel like your pet???)
And as a result possibly have these side effects
Heart attack
Stroke
Hypertension
Blood clots
Period changes, ranging from periods stopping to heavier bleeding
More intense cramping
Slight increase in acne
Nausea
Headaches
Mood changes
Breast tenderness
Slightly heightened migraine pain
Decreased sex drive
Vaginal discharge (non-odorous)
Weight gain (no more than 5 pounds)
Men….. wear a condom for…….a minute (and have the balls the complain that we want them to wear one)
BUT men control what we do with our bodies.
Thank you to all the chauvinistic, ego driven, men who still want to control women due to the lack of satisfaction and control they had on the size they were given, and all the women who they brainwashed into thinking our rights do not matter
