Woman: I'm smart
Patriarchy: Well you're probably ugly then
Woman: I'm creative
Patriarchy: You mean unattractive right?
Woman: I have all these incredible accomplishments
Patriarchy: Yeah but look how ugly you looked doing them
Woman: I have value
Patriarchy: Not if you're ugly lol
Woman: I'm conventionally-attractive & posted selfies on my blog
Patriarchy: I'm so sick of these empty-headed chicks only caring about their looks. Just because you are attractive and get attention from men doesn't mean you are special or deserve respect. Why don't you read a book or do something productive with your life you dumb slut
Hey, sad eyes.
Hey, coffee house headache.
Hey, beauty.Girl with the closed mouth
and the wispy legs, girl with the
ceremonious smile, the polite
head nod of recognition,
girl with so much fight inside
she has to brace her body against it.You are a revolution.
They made a peace…
