It& #39;s essential as feminists to have clarity. (Every struggle demands clarity). But clarity needs time to develop; it requires practice; and demands (un)learning. You have to make mistakes and learn from those mistakes over and over and over gain.
Arriving at clarity is difficult. It& #39;s vital we give room to those working their way to clarity because it& #39;s a never-ending part of our struggle to be working our way to clarity.
It& #39;s worrying to hear that some feminists no longer feel free to share their thoughts out loud on social media because of backlash from other feminists.
None of us are born with a patriarchal assessment tool in our genes. It& #39;s a thing we learn; a practice we develop.
Facing our struggle daily can be difficult and sometimes, a lot of the time, feminists too will fail. But giving room and space for growth, for clarity, is an essential kindness we must learn to extend to our community.
Those who feel they have arrived at clarity: Stand firm but give space. Be kind.
