darinakh13 апреля 2023 г.We talk about love like it’s an involuntary act. We fall into love, like a hole, a puddle, an elevator shaft. We never step mindfully into love. Love, we seem to think, requires a loss of control; love necessitates that vertiginous giving over to gravity; love wants you to have no choice. Your heart thumps because there’s danger and adrenaline in love. You lose yourself in love because you’ve displaced yourself.8301- darinakh13 апреля 2023 г.Women have to work so much harder than men to appear half as convincing.8252

- darinakh10 апреля 2023 г.Nostalgia for knowing nothing is asinine; you can’t recapture it and you don’t want to relive it. Better to sing a song of experience with your burning tiger’s heart.8249
LikaRamzy19 июля 2022 г.Some men need to witness female anger to believe in that woman’s love. Some women need to get angry to experience that love. Some people grow together like horrible species of lichen. My parents, I learned, were precisely this kind of symbiotic organism.

VellaryV14 мая 2022 г.Кажется, я даже любила его. Так, как могла любить кусачий свитер, который мне слишком уж к лицу и потому выбросить его невозможно. И всякий раз, надевая его, я получаю восторженные взгляды и комплименты, а снимая, расчёсываю тело до крови.8287
Yana_Saykova30 ноября 2023 г.И только подруги видят наши слабости, неуверенность, наши недостатки, которые мы вынуждены скрывать от остального мира, потому что — и в этом суть — быть женщиной трудно.
791- darinakh14 апреля 2023 г.The goddess of femininity is cruel to mature women, crushing our brittle bones in her silken, youthful grip. As a girl, when you grow up, you become delectable. As a woman, when you grow old, you turn immaterial—unless you bear children, unless you make art, unless you leave a legacy.7172
- darinakh13 апреля 2023 г.
All humans are bad. Most of us merely live our lives with our worst, most unethical acts lying like bodies clad in concrete, undiscovered, quiet, and dark. What is heaven but the hope for righteous acknowledgment, and what is hell but the fear of discovery.
