And people hound me about how I’ll die with cats and desperately regret not having a man to wash smelly socks for.
Marriage is psychological adrenalectomy.
Cats are cool and so are you. Whatever works for you is the correct decision!
There’s an ancient Greek story about a city where young women were killing themselves at an alarming rate, and the city eventually enacted a law where if a woman killed herself the body would be paraded through the streets naked before burial. After that law, the suicides dramatically went down.
The misogynistic interpretation of the author recording the story was that women were ashamed at the thought of being seen naked, even after death, and so this curbed the suicides.
My own interpretation is that it’s hard to hide bruises on a naked body.
No one should be trapped in a situation where they feel the only option out is suicide.
