like to reiterate constant introspection is not healthy behavior and overthinking your own motivations is more likely to lead to self doubt than anything like self awareness does not equal obsessing over your own flaws so like… it’s what it’s.
do you ever sit and think about your female ancestors and like how many of them endured forced marriages, sexual abuse, physical violence and complete deprivation of education and autonomy and suffered silently for literally centuries. going through pregnancies and child birth without modern medicine, having multiple children and watching most of them die before the age of five because that was just the way of life back then? and ultimately you are a product of their pain? i think about them a lot and then i think about how many women continue to share their reality in this current year
