It's not very easy to grow up into a woman
We are always taught, almost bombarded, with ideals of what we should be at every age in our lives: "This is what you should wear at age twenty", "That is what you must act like at age twenty-five", "This is what you should be doing when you are seventeen." But amidst all the many voices that bark all these orders and set all of these ideals for girls today, there lacks the voice of assurance.There is no comfort and assurance
In this day & age especially with social media & the weapon it can become to ruin a woman’s confidence or lack of it, it is particularly saddening for me to see women bashing women
I for one, receive it on a daily basis
-I must not post bikini pics at my age
-I must not encourage positive social norms when it comes to normalising menstruation talk to empower younger women(& men) on the damaging secrecy surrounding menstruation has permeated in every aspect of society, nurturing superstitions and taboos that are passed on between generations
-I must not celebrate my breasts here because they are scandalous and shatter the border between motherhood and sexuality
All these attacks from fellow women folk
Is society with is authoritarian in its social and sexual codes, crushing us women beneath the intolerable burdens of honour and propriety not enough?
As women-alone we have power,collectively we have impact
So ladies, let’s amplify each other.Build each other up.Do not let a man or another woman throw dirt on a woman to feel secure & better about themselves.Let’s support each other, act as connectors to people and opportunities.It is amazing to be part of a group of women who want you to be your very best & actively help you to succeed.We’re better together & of course our men need to join the conversation too.Without the masculine there can be no feminine, vice versa.In perfect balance ☯️
Let’s fill our hearts with kindness.Make it full & any access will spill over into the lives of people you hold dear.But you MUST come first
Happy International Woman’s Day 💜
