Feminism

Feminism to me isn’t about rejecting motherhood, childcare, or the differences between mothers and fathers.

It is about freedom of choice and recognizing all forms of female experience.

It’s recognizing that raising children is real work—and an essential one for society.

It’s viewing breastfeeding as a right, not an obligation.

It's about allowing women to have access to information and guaranteeing the necessary conditions (such as maternity leave policies) to breastfeed if they choose, without it being imposed or seen as the only valid option.

Feminism to me is recognizing that mothers and fathers ARE different but biological differences should never justify unequal burdens.

Feminism to me shouldn’t t reject motherhood—it should reject the lack of choice, the undervaluation of care, and the unfair weight placed on women.
