being a woman in the 21st century is great a past full of women who fought for us for us to vote for us to work for us to feel safe for us to be equal to our male counterparts now i can buy pepper spray at my college bookstore now i can learn to hate *** because i began to be sexualized at 11 years old now i can walk down my street and only hope to blend in to all those around me so i don’t get yelled at by strange men now i can have a one night stand and pray no mistakes happen and punch my lower stomach and pump my body with toxins as much as possible just in case this isn’t even the tip of the iceberg this isn’t even every struggle a woman must make but can’t you agree that being a woman in the 21st century is great?
