“Those are horrible words.” “Yet, they’re just words.” “Words hold power,” I argued. “True, but only the power you give them.” He moved even closer and was in my personal space now. “Please, try to adapt, Christina. Don’t give away your power so easily.”

“I don’t follow your logic. Women’s private parts seem more robust and can take a hard pounding. They even have to endure giving birth – which isn’t easy, I’ve been told. So, why would you ask me to grow a sensitive, fragile body part and not a tough one like a vagina?”
