I Always Wondered Why I Heard Old People Here In America Say Things Like "I'm Sorry For You" When A Parent

I always wondered why I heard old people here in America say things like "I'm sorry for you" when a parent says they are expecting a girl. (not all of course but you would be surprised how many I've encountered with this mindset)

I know it is obviously rooted by misogyny just how in some other countries they say girls are "easier" than boys. They are not easier, people just decide to control them more.

They are not more difficult either, children are children, when they have tantrums is because they don't know how to properly communicate their discomfort, but parents often punish it instead of trying to communicate.

But I think I finally understand why people in some places tend to say girls are "worse"

Because they judge and blame girls and women for EVERYTHING, they put all this weight on their shoulders and watch them crack, and instead of helping they just say "why are you being so difficult?"

"Take care of your siblings" "don't be bossy" "you are too loud" "you should smile more" "be nicer" "be obedient" "what was she wearing" "she didn't have to be such a b*tch" "she's playing hard to get" "she's dramatic" "hormonal" "on her days" "get over it" "you should be flattered he looked at you" "he just touched you a bit that is not assault" "why are you so emotional" "he is nice you are just delusional" "why would you lie? He is not like that" "no one likes nagging" "you brought this upon yourself"

Please stop!

Do I need to call Yoriichi?

I recently started reading Loving Reaper by Jenny Jinya on webtoon, and I must say it is a masterpiece. The art and dialogs are amazing, everything about it is compelling.

It is a very sad yet beautiful story that portrays a kind Death and realistic Life (I never thought I'd say this but Life is beautiful and Death is such a sweetpie, I wanna hug him, which is probably a bad idea but I just love their characters that much), the comic serves as a wake up call that hits you right across the face and yet it's difficult to stop reading.

It is realistic, bittersweet if you will, it doesn't sugarcoat the horrors animals suffer thanks to humans.

Now obviously not all humans are bad, but most of us are ignorant, some willingly ignorant, that is a privilege.

While not all are guilty, we are all resposible, so please help raise awareness. Most people don't have the resources to care properly for pets of our own (including me), but we can help in other ways, volunteering, danating (food, money, toys), fundraising, and even angaging with shelters in media and sharing so other people can help.

By the end of each chapter of Loving Reaper there is information about what inspired them, sometimes links to online sites to provide help.

I'm reading The Lost Sisters out of curiosity and I find it poetic how it is written as a missive to Jude.

So much longing Taryn has for the bond she had part in breaking, yet she chose him, chose Locke, over her

Over Jude, her sister.

Yet I pity naive Taryn.

But not enough to overlook the resentment

Not enough to ignore how she still blames Jude

Blames her defiance, her secrets, for being a remainder, a mirror.

Jude's secrets were to protect herself

Taryn's secrets were to prove herself to Locke

If secrets are bad, were they both wrong? But actions are judged by consequences, not intentions.

Love is not noble if it hurts others at the end of the tale.

Rhya was right, love is greedy, but Taryn's love is like an ugly glutton beast.

And yet I pity Taryn, but not enough

Never enough.

"you're going to forgive me. You have to. You're my sister, my twin. You've got to understand. If I just explain it right, I know you're going to understand. And I am going to keep standing here and practicing it in the mirror until you stop looking at me that way when I finish." - Taryn, The Lost Sisters

As a woman attracted to women it's so confusing to me how belly rolls/bumb, hip dips and stretch marks are so fucking hot and cute when I see them on other women

They have me DROOLING, heart racing, internally screaming, kicking my feet, IT'S SO FUCKING GORGEOUS, BEAUTIFUL, GODDESS, OMG, BARK BARK-

*coff, coff*

Ehem, continuing...

But I have those same qualities myself and they make me insecure...

Is this common for people attracted to women?
