The guy left without a word. I'd proved myself no lady, and he'd tired of playing the gentleman.

Being unlady like since 1876!

I think a lot about the fact that if you put all my fave podhosts in a room they would absolutely hate each other and I feel like that's a reasonable reflection of my personality...

As different as we all are, there’s one thing most young women have in common: We’re all brought up to feel like there’s something wrong with us. We’re too fat. We’re dumb. We’re too smart. We’re not ladylike enough - ‘stop cursing, chewing with your mouth open, speaking your mind’. We’re too slutty. We’re not slutty enough. Fuck that. You’re not too fat. You’re not too loud. You’re not too smart. You’re not unladylike. There is nothing wrong with you.

Feminist monologue, hostage of one.

A lady

I am not. I was never, and I don't think I'll ever be.

Don't tell me how to sit, how to speak, how to behave.

Don't think that I'll submit to your ways from pure respect because you are older than me. Where was that respect towards me when you made up your mind to call me out in the full room?

I don't mind, don't worry, I am not gonna cry over that. I know your kind, the one who supports patriarchy. I just regret not being able to speak my mind because I was cut off. But don't worry my dear "lady" I will express my feelings next time, and you better be prepared.
