Women have… early deaths. Like I don’t know how to explain this but anxiety of aging, anxiety of growing old in women is so deep that the moment you turn twenty instead of a start to a new page in your life it starts feeling like you’re counting down to the years you’re still liked because the foremost understanding of /being/ a woman is also an understand of being a /girl/ To be a woman you need to be beautiful and to be beautiful you need to be youthful. But it’s okay if we have early deaths as /women/ because we can then live lives for our ownselves
