Woman Herstory Month!

Welcome Back everyone, and to you ladies in specific, I hope that you are all having a fantastic month since it is our month. You see a while ago when my husband was away in Washington, I sent him a letter saying that "I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favourable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If perticuliar care and attention is not paid to the Laidies we are determined to foment a Rebelion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation"( Massachusetts Historical Society). Which now from the looks of things my husband did not Remember the Ladies. Therefore, it is now our time for a rebellion. You see when I was a young girl I was unable to speak out for myself or join group and meetings that gave the support and guidance us woman needed. Now my daughter goes to the Women's March and starts chants to get her voice heard. Clearly, men are the "tyrants," and I think it is time for us ladies to not remind the men that they must remember us, but they will remember us because of the change we are bringing.

Now I do love my husband very much and let that not confuse anyone because I will always have my husbands back, but I feel that men still feel the superior sex when in fact they are not. Take my home, for example, John is never here which therefore makes me in charge and if you ask anyone around the house things are going great. Ladies, we will go farther in life if we have alliances so let's not start a war like these idiots. We are going to promote a change for equality and change in this world because we really do need one.
