I was raised in a conservative Christian home, and as a woman a huge part of that was shame around sex. I’m raising my kids in a sex-positive environment. I want them to feel safe to talk to me about things. I’m matter-of-fact about sex and safety.
Not an abortion, but I had sterilization surgery. I had just gotten divorced and was a single mom going back to school. Trump had just gotten elected and I worried if they overturned the ACA I’d lose access to birth control. I still had to go out of town to get the procedure done…Â
I had a job that updated the dress code to target people also. Women had to wear tights and I wore a pair that was black with a black rose pattern. Then they said no patterned tights. We had a customer appreciation barbecue and while voluntarily working in the heat, I removed my blazer…Â
I lived in a small town where the gym was owned by the catholic-run hospital. For that reason, they weren’t allowed to offer yoga at our only gym. There was a lot of hand-wringing about yoga being… I don’t even know what. Anti-Christian? Pilates was ok, though.
I grew up in an area with a lot of religious families. Everyone I knew growing up wasn’t allowed to watch Jumanji because it was basically a ouija board.
I came on here to say the same thing. I’m not a fan of lying and hurting people, but loving more than one person is normal and not shameful. Hopefully she can navigate this part of herself better in future.
My mom was totally anti-locks because of fire safety. It would be scary if there was a fire and the kid was locked in the room, maybe unconscious. You can respect someone’s privacy without locks.
