I just want all the young women who romance with cis men to know that you don’t need to be patient with the Lawrence’s of the world. You don’t need to raise your boyfriend. Find someone who is grown.
I think we need tell girls this from whatever age they start taking an interest in boys because from day one girls are being trained to take men’s shit and boys are being trained to let women feel responsible for taking their shit
I remember going to a pilates teacher training with a bunch of older women who were stunned my husband drove me an hour to class *on my birthday*. “My husband would never do that for me! And he got you a necklace? Wow.”
Please don’t end up in those marriages.

I didn’t get this messaging about my right to something better at a young enough age and a lot of men have benefited from me not knowing that I didn’t owe them uneven levels of emotional housework. But we can save future generations from this mess.
People tell me all the time how lucky I am to be married to @MrProfChanda and he does not get the same messaging about me. The ways I support him are invisible and not worth celebrating. But he drives me for an hour and he’s a fuckin hero.
