A small misconception

A small misconception

I'm a feminist. And I'm clumsy. What's worse? Take your time and don't answer.
I won't rewrite the dictionary definition of feminism. I hope that everyone knows something about gaining the right to vote and legal liberties. So now you have to listen to my complaints about damaging stereotypes and being a feminist.

1. We don't shave our legs.
It seems stupid. I've heard that so many times! Legs, armpits... who cares? If I feel a need, I do it. That fact doesn't make me less femenine. We aren't uptight, aggressive, harsh. But we can be, if you want. As you wish.
Ah, I wear make-up and I'm not ugly.

2. We hate men.
That's not true!!! We despise them.

3. We are lesbians.
If you become a feminist, you also become lesbian. Ok, be careful and buy some flowers to your wife. Do it quickly, because I've just texted her.

4. We encourage women to leave theirs partners.
As I said, we are man-hating lesbians.
We support stay-at-home moms. It's theirs choice and we will respect them for doing so.

5. We don't need men.
We haven't vowed to stay single for the rest of our life. One day I will marry my boyfriend. Ok, actually pizza is my boyfriend. First of all, I will change it for a human and then I will get married. It's clear to me that I won't take my partner's last name.
One of the reasons why I'm feminist is because I'm dreaming of having equal wrights and being treated without taunts, not because a man has rejected me.

A perfect example from one of the most popular dictionaries:
My sister is a feminist, she believes she doesn't need a man. (Moja siostra jest feministką, uważa, że nie potrzebuje mężczyzny.)

I feel pity for men who don't understand why feminism should be fundamental to every woman. Being a feminist means supporting equal rights. I have to say that not only men have spread the negative stereotype of a feminist. Please don't deal with injustice.

If you go travelling, don't go with your parents

I hate doing outdoor activities of any kind. I prefer to go to the gym. You can be sure that it's never to wet to go running. My dad adores to walk long distances. My father decided to organize a TRIP. A hill walking trip. I'm a lazy person and pretty clumsy (as you may know) so I was unwilling to go. I meant to tell him the truth but I didn't want to upset him. One week later I regretted lying to my dad.
We went by train to a town in the extreme south of Poland, to a perfect destination for mountaineering, skiing or a classical hill walking. We set off in the morning with our heavy rucksacks. I had taken an anorak to avoid getting wet, but the weather was exceptional for the time of year. Two days later I was praying for the rains to come. I was dreaming of spending a whole day in a rest house. Or in a stable, just like Jesus.
On the last day we didn't stop on the mountain to admire the scenery. The view was breathtaking. Before we reached our destination... Ohh, I wouldn't have broken my finger while climbing a mountain if I weren't there. If only I were more selfish...
Oh, my dad joined a hill walking club. He and his new friends are involved in other activities such as cycling or trips overseas. To my relief I don't have to accompany him.

I adore that video :D Abort sport! ...But I wish I had a flatter stomach.

I'm a Christmas freak

My mother is always putting off decorating our house until the last minute. She has been ignoring Christmas since I moved out. Do you know when you should start the preparation for the most wonderful time(No, it's not your wedding.)? Let me give you some advice. You need a whole year. Ok, I'm joking. First of all, celebrate the National Independence Day and then get ready to do the job. Undoubtedly, I'm a Christmas freak.
Nothing is more magical than a Christmas tree. Despite many advantages of fake trees, I couldn't miss the piney scent. It’s never too late to throw out your artificial tree!
I would be so happy to receive socks or hand-knitted sweaters. I've never received such a tradicional gift... Don't buy me computers, practical and stylish leather bags, trips to Berlin. I'm begging you. Make my Christmas more Christmassy. What's more, I'm bargain hunter. So a DIY's gift will be more appropriate.
I suffer from many types of allergies. I can't eat tangerines and oranges... My doctor said: It is forbidden to drink wine with orange ring. As Christmas approaches, I become a teetotaller. I adore making my home smell like Christmas. I boil water with orange peels, cinnamon sticks and rosemary springs. It's hard for me to breathe, but who cares?
Mum, where's my (ugly) Christmas sweater???
