You are adequate, and I like maps.

This is long overdue.

To all you insane "feminists" out there: yes, women should be proud of who they are as women. Yes, women shouldn't let men tell them what to wear or how to act or what's appropriate for them to say. Yes, women should be their own people and no one else's expectations of the perfect lady. But listen. Just because a woman falls in love with a man, that does not make her any less of a woman. She can still be a beautiful, strong, independent woman while she makes him pancakes in the morning or puts on makeup to look good for him or responds when he calls her "baby".

There's a difference between being a feminist, one who really wants women to be accepted and equal, and being a woman who hates men. That's not feminism; that's misandry. If I happen to very much enjoy being called "babe", I am no less a woman than you. I am not weak, I am not dependent on a man, and I am certainly not pathetic. I'm just a girl looking for love, the same as anyone else.

Feminism is cool.
Judging people is not.
