A friend shared the following article by Emma Gray (via The Huffington Post) titled 23 Things Every Woman Should Stop Doing with me. She loved the article, as do I. Her most interesting comment was that she thought this advice applied to everyone, not just women. I have to say that I agree. I think that many of these issues impact women in our society more than men but the truth is that these are good rules for all of us.
I encourage you to check out Ms. Gray’s suggestions – http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/09/11/23-things-every-woman-should-stop-doing_n_3908151.html
While it is true that these rules might apply to everyone, it is also true that is a myriad of rules, values, expectations and morals which impact women so much more then men as a whole. It reminded me of this amazing video of Lily Myers, performing for Wesleyan University at the 2013 College Unions Poetry Slam Invitational. This poem was awarded Best Love Poem at the tournament.
A lot to think about…
