The writing is fascinating.

You get to see the origin of like, I don't agree with that and I see it.

So now I can engage with it and disagree with it.

One of my favorite examples is if a man is looking at a female body of men writing about female body as inferior because they're not as efficient.

And the example would be that they bleed, that they have milk coming out of their breasts and they have blood coming out of their vagina.

They're not efficient.

To look at a woman's body who can do that and say that that's deformed, that's the cool stuff.

That's the life stuff that maybe there's some actual interesting jealousy happening there.

But if you know that that was the logic, then you can contend with it and disagree with it.

Wow.

I do not think that my body is inefficient or deformed or inferior because it can do these things.

I think those are my superpowers.

I think my body is amazingly powerful.

I don't think that my sex organs define my sex.

I don't think my sex organs define my worth.

And I love being a woman.

That doesn't mean that I belong in the home no matter what.

Now remember who taught me, the nuns who just like didn't buy into that.

I think one of the roles that I have to play because I was taught in that way is straddling this.

We have to talk about white Christian nationalism.
