Barbie Dolls Pt 2
Now that I am eighteen years old I have learned two things. Number one, I will not let words define me, I define myself. Number two, I will never raise my future children under these misogynistic terms. If I have a girl who likes to wear boy clothing I will let her become her own person. If I have a boy who is sentimental I will never tell him the term that since he is a boy he isn't allowed to cry.
I may have been raised to believe that women are only meant to stay in a kitchen but I refuse to believe it. Women are meant to do wonders, women are meant to fight. Whether it be on frontier borders of war, or battling politicians. But women are not meant for kitchens and childbirth, I refuse to believe it.
