On Perspectives
Mine is valid also, why should I sacrifice my own for yours?
The fact that I am 1.5 years into asking for help, and none has arrived is very telling. But I get a lot of advice on how to speak, think, walk, talk, act, and be someone other than who I am. No thank you, I will choose to be me.
It took me 46 years to gain some kind of freedom, I am fighting tooth and nail to hold on to it with vice grips. The last thing I need is to slow down, to stop, or to dilute who I am. I have never, ever in my life been allowed to be me outside the presence of my controller. Why would I give that up now?
I can’t help your assumptions, I can only help myself get free and heal. It’s a shame no one else will help! I shouldn’t have to say this but it needs to be said. If I were a White woman, this would have all ended decades ago! UN Women The White House
