We Interrupt Your Previously Scheduled Feminism
To wish my boyfriend, who is looking very much like a villain in this picture, a very happy birthday!
He is 31 today, or as he put it earlier ‘almost 50.’ So happy ‘almost 50th’ birthday to the man who thinks nothing of wearing a bright pink shirt with ‘This is what a feminist looks like’ printed in rather large letters across the front to play a show with his band, regardless of what his band mates may think or say to him about it.
And with that, I’ll share with you my favorite quote of all time which also says a lot about why me and the boyfriend get along so well–Well, besides the enormous amount of hours we can spend playing video games together and feasting on junk food.
I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.
– Anais Nin
