Cruising 💐 Spring

Hey just a quick psa because I haven’t done one of these in a while IF YOU ARE A TERF GET OFF MY FUCKING BLOG!!! I don’t care what the fuck you call yourself, terf, gender critical, or whatever bullshit, if you don’t support trans people, I want you gone!

TRANS WOMEN ARE WOMEN

TRANS MEN ARE MEN

NON-BINARY IDENTITIES ARE REAL AND VALID

You either stand with the entire lgbt+ community or you stand with none of it. I stand with my trans siblings and if you don’t, get off my blog

It honestly amazes me how many of my friends and women I know would love to be homemakers but they are embarrassed to admit it. Its sad that it is assumed that all women should want to be “hustlers” and “boss ladies” and wanting to being a homemaker is seen as outdated and having a lack of ambition. 

I’ll admit that I’m a little shy talking about my true goals sometimes, but when I get to connect with another woman who shares the same aspirations it really means so much to me. 

*Just want to make it clear that I’m not hating on women who have career goals. I love and support them too! 

You don’t have to call me out like that!

What tradfem blogs really are like: b r e a d.

Now that sounds like one peaceful life!

I just want a nice home. A nice home to clean, decorate, & make warm, welcoming, & safe for not only my family & I, but for those in our lives. A home that people look forward to stepping foot in, not dread.

I want a husband who is not only my best friend, but my soul-mate & provider. Who I know always has things under control. Who makes me feel safe, like he'll never stop loving me. Like I can always depend on him. Like he'll never hurt me & I'll never live in fear again.

I want children. Children that I can care for, love, & play with all day. Children that will always know that mommy & daddy always have their best interests at heart. Who know mommy & daddy love each other just as much as they love them, so they can grow up with a healthy view of what a relationship should be. Children that I can tuck in at night after reading a story to, after having given a nice warm bath & can chase around the house or out in the yard during the day.

I want a nice, big kitchen that I can cook & bake in. A kitchen that always has food waiting to be eaten that I made for those I love. They'll never have to worry about going hungry. None of us will.

I want pets that we can play with & brush & give treats & new toys to. Pets that will settle down with us at night in front of a fire in chilly evenings & will be a part of our family.

I want a garden. One where I grow food to use for recipes. One where my children are free to learn how to use their hands to dig into the soil to plant their favorite fruits or vegetables.

I want a calm, loving life. I want to settle down. I don't need to travel the world. I don't need to be famous or rich. I just want simplicity. But for some reason, it feels like asking for that is what's known as too much nowadays.

Feminism should definitely be more inclusive of femininity! 

Can we please kill this idea that you can’t be feminine AND a feminist? Who even started this? Who decided that being a traditional woman means you can’t stand strong alongside your sisters?

my dad’s grandparents used to make all their grandkids turn off all the lights and he completely silent during thunderstorms and dad thought it was because they had some strange superstition around thunderstorms but it was actually because my great grandparents liked to watch/listen to them in peace.
