Misogyny runs so deep that when a man genuinely respects a woman, other dudes think it's just to get laid.

Hanging out with your (real) friends is the best thing ever. No matter how bad things get it will always make you feel good oh. Always.

Hi, so the woman who carried and gave birth to me was 13 years old, celebrated her 14th birthday only days before I was born. I should’ve been aborted. It’s really terrible that she was made to carry and birth a baby while she was a child herself. Am I happy to be alive? Yes. Absolutely. Very happy to be here. Would I be mad had I been aborted? No, I wouldn’t exist, I wouldn’t feel anything. I shouldn’t exist. She was a child. The lives of girls/women are more valuable than fetuses.

Blaming a trigger-happy policeman’s actions on spirituality is exactly why we are still where we are.

Women are doing great things and I will be one of them

Are introverts a joke to you? 🙂

i hope every lover girl finds her super calm gentleman who is unashamedly and insanely obsessed with her

i highly recommend for women and girls to be intellectually curious and difficult to shame.

Friends. Having actual friends. Not familiar acquaintances or online mutuals. Real Friends. One of the best hacks for a fulfilling life.

You want to protect women in traditional roles? Give them pension rights for domestic labor. Make marital assets legally equal from day one. Criminalize spousal abandonment. Fund maternal healthcare. Or admit you don't actually want to protect her. You just want her to stay.

Even if your life turns out “average.” Record yourself. You future generation wants to see you.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Dear Menstruation, We need to talk. First of all, I respect your consistency. Every month, no fail. You don’t even send a memo,you just show up. That’s commitment. But can we address a few things? 😢 You already take blood. Fine, we’ve accepted that part. You already bring cramps that make us question every life choice we’ve ever made. We’ve managed. You already come with fatigue that turns a simple flight of stairs into Mount Everest. We’ve coped. So my question is,why the extra? Why do you always have to announce your arrival by redecorating our faces with pimples? 🥲😢 Is the blood not enough announcement? Is the back pain not loud enough? Do you really need to leave souvenirs on our cheeks and chin for the whole world to see? We are already dealing with mood swings, cravings, and the fear of staining white. We are already calculating pad money. Please, can we sign a peace treaty? Take the blood, take the cramps if you must, but leave our faces alone. We are managing enough. Let us at least keep our glow. Yours sincerely, Every girl who has checked the mirror and said “God, not again” few days before you arrived.

The only reason some of you think Africans shouldn’t join global conversations is because you see yourselves as inferior. That’s a self-esteem issue.

james baldwin was so right when he said you think you’re alone and then you pick up a book and realise someone else has felt the same way as you and managed to find a language for it. the realest shit
