i can acknowledge and know darn well that what i created in this home for all of us to live, in manys ways was anti feminism. i acknowledge and recognize. it is not painful. it was my choice. i recognized then and recognize now that the choice was counter to what i fight. in recognizing, i addressed things in raising the boys, things that one who does not recognize/acknowledge, that i hope will leave an imprint on the boys. and because of my choice will have to live with repercussions. i get that.

it doesnt make what feminism is saying to be wrong.
