“Each time a woman stands up for herself, without knowing it possibly, without claiming it, she stands up for all women.”-Maya Angelou
Do we need to create another movement with slogans like Women’s Lives Matter or Women Own Their Bodies. So keep your paws off! Does it ever end? The recent incident has caused a welling up of stories from women who had been silenced by shame, fear, and intimidation. There is a sickening and grief that is shared with all of my gender all the way back to Eve.

Thank you for your courage, Deborah. You have uncovered thoughts and feelings that I would rather not think and feel. But they are real and need to be brought into the light.

The recent news about sexual harassment and worse has been very disturbing to me and this was my way of expressing some of it. The women who have spoken up and revealed what they went through are the courageous ones. I only hope we are coming to a real turning point with the kind of behavior that is tolerated. Thank you, Jo Anna. ❤
