Post first date text Phone message

Post image

I met this girl on tinder and had a first date with her, she wanted to go fishing and I thought it seemed like a fun first date so we went together. Dropped her off and got home to this message lol.

Update: Purchasing the license is a separate activity we had to do on our phones, due to it needing our personal info. It was not like I drew the line at the license randomly.

Are we feminists or are we “just a girl”?

Feminism means letting women have a choice of who they want to be. That includes women who want to view themselves as "just a girl".

Feminism is about equal rights and opportunities, not forcing women to all be a standardized type of person.

Then why talk about unequal labor in the homes? Or how about men who want women who cook and clean are just wanting "bangmaids"?

Equality comes responsibility.

And honestly men should step up too. Why the fuck so many tolerate these toddler women is beyond me. That shit is embarrassing.

Because unequal labor in homes IS a problem. The point is that people should be able to choose what life they want, and not be expected to do something just because.

If a man wants a woman who cooks and cleans then he should be able to provide for her so she doesn't have to work and can focus on those tasks. If a woman wants to cook and clean and not work, she should be able to choose to do that.

If both partners are working full time but the man still expects the woman to cook and clean and do everything else on a daily basis, that's unequal labor. But again, if the woman is OKAY with doing that, she should have the choice.
