Growing up female is knowing what rape is before knowing what sex is.

More specifically, growing up female is being angry towards your mom for not letting you go to your friends house with male relatives. Your mom not letting you see your grandpa because ‘he is a bad man’. Developing anxiety about being seen around men. It is being told how to scream if someone touches you, and not being told how to appropraitely deal with your period.

Growing up female is slowly learning why as you grow. Whether it be by bitter force, or the painful realization. Every girl grows up to be afraid their entire life.

not to sound like a bitch but dont compare how france isnt allowing muslim women to dress in the swimsuit they want to a woman in the 80s being asked to cover up this isnt about men controlling what women wear this is an islamophobic movement done to spite muslims this was a direct hit to muslims and how the west views muslims this is isnt about your white feminism this is specifically about how this was done to remind muslims people see them as a threat the way they denied the right of young muslim girls to wear hijab to public schools
