An open letter to all my American sisters.
My heart is so heavy today for ALL minorities but for obvious reasons I can only relate to my fellow sisters. Working in two very male dominated industries I am far too familiar with inequality. On numerous accounts I have had men refuse to speak to me regarding subjects I am more than capable of discussing, simply because they cannot accept even the idea that a woman would be intelligent enough to answer their questions. I have had a manager tell me only women can answer the phone in a work place, I have had men cat call and degrade my body with their eyes. These are not things I talk about OR usually let get to me, however in this instance I just cannot be silent. I'm mind boggled that any woman, child of a woman (obviously everyone) or male with sisters or daughters could allow someone with such extreme disregard for women - be in power. I am terrified of what a future looks like for women everywhere, I am terrified to bring children into this world, and I am heart broken for every single woman who has fought endlessly for our equality. They tell us from a young age to lead by example, what kind of example does Trump give to men? That it's okay to disrespect women, that their bodies are free for grabs (literally), and on top of that- his campaign includes a pro-life policy. So you go ahead and do whatever the fuck you please with us mindless blow up dolls and if you get us pregnant we are stuck with your fucking child. OR making an extremely destructive decision to give up that baby for adoption and suffer endless years of mental torture.
Women of America, fasten your chastity belts- hope and pray that this nightmare will end soon, and if you need anything from us across the border we are here for you, we will stand behind you and we will fight this with love.
