This was what it was like with my ex-husband. This also included going and finding a Job when he lost his. Now with my forever husband im still a SAHW/M. Ive never been happier. He treats me as his equal, even though he is head of house and has final say in many things, my opinions and views are more often then not his final decision. There are only 2 situtations when he expects/desires full submission from me; 1. my safety and 2. the bedroom lol, and let him do his job as the protector and provider Alot of the things my ex expected/demanded/forced me to do, i now do for my forever husband because I *want* to. He does NOT expect it, demand or force it. He has EARNED the PRIVILEGE of me doing these things for him. He is an active part of our kids lives even when he works 12/5 and gets an hour or two with the kids on his work day, and 4+ on his days off. I take care of the inside of the house, my garden and raising our kids. He is in charge of outdoor maintenance, dishes and trash and lawn scaping. My exhusand used to just sit around doing nothing but play PS4. If i got on his nerves he would strangle me. It was bad. Now i can say that im the happiest ive EVER been and am able to live my dream of being a SAHM to 5 ( soon to be 6) children.
Vote for your rights. Vote blue down the ticket. Finally young women are waking up. You have to fight for your rights just like your grandothers did. The fascist MAGA/GOP wants to keep women ignorant and pregnant and they are coming for your contraceptives right now!
I can totally see this being a theater production as a way to pay tribute to the women in history that are often overlooked and their struggles to what we are fighting for now! Already it’s become a movement! Why not take it farther?
"Apologies from my tongue, and never yours" is a line I really appreciate because of how much the woman takes emotional responsibility for the relationship, trying to resolve and getting nowhere. She really didn't miss a thing in this song.
Everyone let's not forget the trans males too! They feel female rage too! As a trans male myself I feel female rage too because of things in my life (which I want to keep secret please don't ask)
This brought literal tears to my eyes, I can see the emotion in everyone’s face when they’re singing this…us women need to be there for each other more than ever. Black, White, Asian, Hispanic/Latino, Amerindian/Alaskan Native, and Hawaiian Native/Pacific Islander; we all need each other. Blessed be to all women out there, blessed be to all young girls. We will get through this 🩶🫶
This is such a deep topic I’m glad anger is finally seen as a legit emotion and not a purely masculine trait, though I would say most of the time it starts as a knowing or vindication. I do not mean or intend to minimize anyone’s personal suffering. There is an oversoul of men and an oversoul of women, (divine harmony) and everything else is a personal relationship between individuals, be it rocks plants animals ppl gods etc. There are men and women incapable of feeling anyone els’s emotions. All they experience is drive to get what they want. There’s so many highly empathic men who can just feel everything and can’t turn it off and they have not anger but vindication and would never unleash anger on anyone, but ppl are never even remotely interested in us till much later in life because we are so hard to talk to or understand due to not needing or using social cues like at all, where as extroverts learn the game, the micro expressions, all the cues, how to fuck without a care about manipulating anyone because they are the ones incapable of feeling others, yet are brutally honest about what they want in a way that’s easy to understand or manipulate into believing. There is no life without fire, there is no beginning without endings and this is beautiful. This was way longer but I paraphrased greatly. if it resonates, I hope it helps and I appreciate you too.
And in the USSR, a woman was the first in the world to receive not imaginary, but real freedom and equal rights with men. Therefore, you can complain and write songs as much as you like about your sad fate, but nothing will change until actions similar to those taken by Clara Zetkin and Rosa Luxemburg are taken.
I was a wildland firefighter for one summer. One day I went out into this field and was watching the bees, just because I love bees. Three of the guys came over and started playing “monkey in the middle” with bee spray. I tried to stop them but they sprayed and killed the bees for no reason other than just making me sad. I was 20 and I still cried for the bees
We have to work We have to clean We have to obey We have respect We have to listen We have to get marry We have to get children We have to shup up We have to be unhappy? No. We deserve to be happy.
My grandmother was essentially kidnapped by my 30 year old grandfather when she was 15 after she became pregnant with their first child. She gave birth to 7 more in the coming years. My grandfather was abusive to both her and their kids. My grandmother's mother hated him for it. She used to throw rocks at him whenever she saw him and would tell him that when she went, she'd drag him with her. She died many years after and 3 months later, my grandfather died of a brain aneurysm at 60. My grandma was 45. She lived til she was 96, enjoying a very comfortable retirement off his pension and their land. This song reminds me of her.
when i was 14 in summer camp this girl that was in the same group as me found a frog she had given it a name and was going around showing everyone before this other girl who was probably about 12 or 13 snatched it from her hands and crushed it. when asked why she did it she said she just wanted to. The next year when i was a counselor she did the same thing in front of a group of the kindergarteners. This girl was demented. she also tried to feed a turtle at the lake a cigarette.
This song is so beautiful and it makes me so emotional every time. It’s so sad that this one is so underrated, because to me, it’s one of your best ones. It’s unexplainable. 🦋
