One of the most popular ways to keep women down is to criticise how they look and what they wear. The trolls do it endlessly to all women. God they're dull. The same obviously doesn't happen to men. Many newspapers will play the same card.... So that women feel threatened by how people might view them. Judgments made and affirmed about a woman and her personality depending on what she wears. It's a technique as old as the hills. When I was aged 39 in the year 2000 I wore a short blue Ungaro designer dress to the Baftas. Well, you'd have thought I'd committed a heinous crime against humanity. Certain newspapers screamed headlines for about a year. The BBC made a whole show about it. They flew in a copy of the dress from Paris and the audience argued viciously about the question posed. What waa the question? SHOULD A WOMAN AGED 39 WEAR A DRESS ABOVE THE KNEE? Yes. Really. That was the question. This wasn't Victorian times. It was in this century. In this country. Obviously I chose to keep on wearing skirts above the knee. And keep going to the gym. And saying what I want to say. And the naysayers can "go and do one". But a WARNING girls. Right now in the UK women's freedoms have never been as good BUT unless you support each other properly many of those freedoms will be scrapped or reduced. There are millions who would take all that away from you. Women before me, and also women of my generation and others have waded through a lot of crap so that our daughters and your daughters have these freedoms. Please fight to continue them. I'll fight alongside you but we must do it together. It only works that way. With love from me Carol (Age 63 and 11/12😁) ❤️ 💪🏼 - @carolvorders
