I read novels from 15 years ago that still use the word 'frigid'. We are called pearl clutches, prudes--and I sooo want to say something to refute that but I never do-- because fuck that and fuck them. We see 'catty' or cat fight' all the time. 10 years ago Larry summers was questioning women's ability to use math. HC gets called "shrill". It just ever fucking ends

And it's why I'll never fucking stop fighting.
