Yes i know the patriotic mantra on the 4th of July. Freedom and independence and all that jazz. But as i think about this...who was free?
Certainly not women for a LONG LONG time.. African americans? nope. Children? no way
WHITE MALES? ummm yeah.
As women we still dont have the freedom to birth our babies where and with whom in many places of this country. We are still sciences guinea pigs with our children being second. We still struggle with domestic abuse issues and men not being held accountable for their violence.
If you are a white christian male..life is good eh? Happy Day of Freedom!!!
As for me, I will continue to struggle with a society that does not like or honor me as a woman except if sex is involved or submission or making dinner for a man. Certainly having opinions is NOT acceptable.... but see heres the secret.
I am coming up on crone years and I simply dont give a fuck what society thinks anymore.
One day all people will enjoy freedom....
