(There’s a good chance these will be stickers at ECCC.)

Okay but when will girls be praised for cleaning the whole house and cooking for the whole family and being organized and taking care of younger siblings/children the same way families praise their boys when they wash their own fucking dishes.

I think it’s really excessive how ppl expect that bc u have ur phone with u that u are available to communicate at all times tbh I don’t respond to ppls messages ALL THE TIME and not bc I fell asleep or am out of service or have a good excuse even but bc I just don’t want to be accessible or in a conversation, all the time, always

Nobody before the cell phone was available to communicate at every second of the day and I expect to be able to draw a boundary and respond to my friends when i can be fully present in interacting with them

People should be allowed to respond to you when it is comfortable for them to do so
