Ladies, do you agree - it is hard to be a woman... How moods change, what people's expectations are, how hard it is to achieve some dreams...
How often have you heard - "it's good for a woman" or maybe "you're a woman, you should get pregnant soon". And what about these lines, are they familiar to you - "you're a woman, you can't handle it", "run farther away from the woman behind the wheel", "how come you don't want kids/marriage/family life".
And have you been getting concerned advice about how you need to change to be liked and loved. I'm sure you've heard these lines, received this advice or even more harsh, cruel or abusive.
Today I just want to remind you of something important - there is no shame in being a woman.
