Roam Free Australia :

is that like when a man feels special because he washed his own cup in the sink ?

Kelly H 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 :

It doesn't make us individually special no. But it is special because in modern history we weren't allowed a mortgage, a bank account or even our children! You only hear the term Independent woman not Independent man and thats because we weren't supposed to ever be Independent. So yes we are special!

Philicia Jacobs :

or normal

slo.sasha :

Ok, who said being independant is special? It's normal!😄

Mel :

Lol it makes us responsible adults.. ❤️

야리 :

The average man isn’t dealing with daily systematic misogyny against them

who is Lady J?

womanunsupervised :

This ignores the fact that men and women haven't historically started from the same position. Financial independence may be a basic expectation of adulthood, but women have faced very different cultural, social and economic barriers to achieving it. You can't talk about equality of expectations without acknowledging inequality of opportunity.

`¡~▪︎ ang3l. ▪︎°¡ :

exactly the same as when a man feels special when he washes a spoon

Thege :

🤣🤣🤣 Oh, they'll come for you with everything they've got!

April :

Your absolutely correct but I did bring up a child on my own and pay if a mortgage. That's not the average man.

pickupbar3🌀 :

Great! So you should also understand how because throughout history women have been expected to do nothing except become a housewife, this is extremely independent in society and how far society has come. We know it’s expected of a normal adult, but we also know that’s only recently become the case in our society. And many people still have the mindset women shouldn’t be working, some countries still have that role heavily implemented.

jollyrogerhobbies :

so I can't be a strong independent Man? 🤣

anny.ivanna :

I am special. I'm the first woman in my maternal line that even gets to be independent. No stigma, no shame, no status loss, no shunning, no need for another person to facilitate a whole full life. I get to be truly and radically responsible

bread

Babaloo :

This actually pees me off, because your right, I do this - It shouldn't be special, but I still find myself saying "I don't need a man", and none of us should think that way... thank you, it reinforces that even when we do this, we still find ourselves explaining it...

Alan 🇨🇦 :

And an average "Adult". Men want a Partner . Not a Dependent or a Competitor.

𝑳𝒂𝒏𝒂 𝑰𝒔𝒂𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆 :

your opinions are so satisfying, ma'am

jvy009 :

hello lady j

kevinwagner422 :

smart woman

Abu :

You're gonna get them mad 😭 The same mouth that says "If men cooks and stuffs he's just normal" will cry when they hear this shii 🥀

Lady Margo :

Who said anything about being special? It makes one independent and that’s fantastic.

Sharon :

Jude :

I totally consider myself to be independent, I do all the adult stuff on my own (including changing a flat tyre and fixing a toilet), I am a woman so I’m an independent woman. Is the issue being one by definition or thinking it’s special?
