She looks like a hooker. Woman should be a lady. Woman should be a warrior. It is about natural beauty. Real woman wears high heels. Feminists don’t wear high heels. She shows her body way too much, something should stay hidden. She is all covered up. Oh, she is too tight. She could be a 10, if she would change this about her. She wears too much make-up. Oh, she doesn’t wear any make-up, she would be so much prettier with some make-up. She is a bad mum. She is a good mum, but … She is too career driven. She is a bitch. She is a people pleaser. She is too manly, she is too feminine.
Oh my god, can we let the woman already be whatever she wants to be?
Can I let the woman in me already be whatever she wants to be?
Sometimes hooker, sometimes priest. (This song came to my mind)
Sometimes care-giver, sometimes selfish bitch,
sometimes good girl, sometimes bad,
sometimes all natural, sometimes with a lipstick,
sometimes with sneakers, sometimes with heels,
sometimes dramatical, sometimes calming…
And all in between.
Sometimes all together and nothing at the same time.
Whatever tha fuck I want to be. Whatever she wants to be. Whatever they want to be. Whatever you want to be.
It was a few years ago, when I listened to some song from Beyonce on youtube, I don’t remember which song, but there was this comment under it that clicked so much with me. I copied it and send it to my boyfriend. Unfortunately, I don’t know the author, but I think she or he wouldn’t mind if I share it here:
“…you are acting like singing about sex or shaking her ass degrades a woman. Creating boundaries and telling a woman what she should and shouldn’t do with her body or voice is was degrades women, as does slut-shaming, which is what you’re doing. Get off your high horse and respect women and their choices.”
By the way, I bought this book called Pussy last week. It’s life changing. If you are a woman, it’s a must read. Must read. I recommend it so much. My life is already better because of it. Funny thing is, that I wanted this book since September. Then I forgot about it and last week I took a walk and it just came to my mind, that I should check out Amazon, because the kindle version of book will cost me only around 3€ now. And so it was! Magic.You can still get it for $3.65. Click click.

I am thinking about painting folloving statements on 3 Ptice tote bags:
“Not all of those who wander are lost.” -Tolkien
“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there.” -Rumi
“Be a light unto yourself.” -Buddha
