My ex fiancé would say the strangest things and deride me. If I ever stuck up for myself he would go in a little kiddy bully voice "oooh girl power...." like the spice girls and laugh. Made me feel rubbish about myself, I was never a feminist, I realise that in other countries girls don't even go to school, get stitched up and suffer so I have never felt like I could not achieve as much as a guy could. Except one time my father told me that physically there are things that a women will never do, like the marines corp. We are just not built for it, and I accept that. Even though my brother got more than me from my mum, my step dad treated us the same.
You will never see me at a pride parade i think it is superfluous and we do not need to be seen as separate but an integrated whole, love is love it is all the same.
Think people, it was only the 1950s that blacks were still segregated in America. It is not just being gay.
