Just Another Brick In The Wall

Just Another Brick In The Wall
Are we really in this age of enlightenment that we claim? This MeToo breakout? There are just too many occasions in my life – and, not so incidentally, in my friends’ lives too! – I am faced with Neaderthal Man incarnate when asked the question in a heated argument with my boyfriend “Are You On Your Period”? I absolutely, absolutely loathe it when I just want to have a serious conversation with my boyfriend, concerning our relationship, and he reverts to type. That makes me fucking angry. For so many reasons. Against him for being so shallow and inadequate. Against me for putting up with it more than once. And against the world for thinking this kind of shit is in the past. NO THEY’RE STILL HERE. These assholes we women fool ourselves into thinking we depend on. It is up to us to stamp out this stupidity by whatever means. After all the cramps in our bodies are bad enough without this stamping on our emotions. It is certainly a boring truism but VERY relevant for all that. IF YOU KEEP DOING WHAT YOU’RE DOING, YOU’LL KEEP GETTING WHAT YOU’RE GETTING!
