        Everything a woman does in our society, down to the tiniest gestures MUST be measured in how it will be perceived by a *man*.

            It’s okay, as a woman or non-binary person, to do something for yourself—even if it doesn’t make sense to heteronormativity or patriarchy.

              It’s okay to show off an aspect of your body or your personality that doesn’t make sense to (again, generally cis) men. You be you. ❤️💛💚💙💜
