I had the baby.

I decided that I should take the consequences of my actions.

I was just a teenager but I thought, 'If I'm old enough for sex, I'm old enough to look after a baby.'

(Cont)

#RoeVsWade I thought, 'OK, I can go to uni later. There's no reason I can't do all the things I want to do ... I just have to figure it out. I might have no £ but there must be help available.' (Haha).

So on this historic day the #TivertonandHoniton win,
let's consider I was a whopping 42 years old before my vote counted for something *other* than the 'same-old, same-old'.

Let that sink in for a second.

#TivertonandHonitonByElection I've always been politically engaged my entire life. I have voted in every election, incl MEPs (yes those who are apparently 'unelected') & council ones, since I came of age.
Hell, I even voted when I was IN LABOUR - and by that I mean literally in the process of giving birth.

More on 'feminine wiles' - I have been told more than once - BY WOMEN! - that these are 'anti feminist'. So are female antagonists or fem chrs doing appalling things.

When confronted with evidence of REAL female abusers, those commentators will say its cuz they 'had no choice' It's obvious what is going on here: those commentators believe women are inherently helpless/victims of patriachy and thus incapable of creating coping strategies or utilising skills to deal with it.

Oooh boy. So much to unpack here
