I'm hyper-aware of how our culture praises the superwoman - the woman who can manage being a mom, a career person, a health- enthusiast, while maintaining a pinterest-worthy home - and how this obsession with doing it all starts to impact the pressure we put back on ourselves.
I've decided I'm here to praise the people who rest.
The ones who set firm boundaries.
The ones who say no.
The ones who ask for help.
The ones who admit they don't have it all together.
The ones that choose the messiness of life instead of trying to keep everything polished and pristine.
This is the kind of superwoman I am here for.

Conveniently ignoring the conditions the system allows workets to exist within and the propaganda machine it relies on not only to pump consumerism into our brains from birth, but also stop us from thinking critically, like you've demonstratd here, isn't going to get you taken seriously.
I'd suggest doing some reading, but you don't really strike me as someone willing to put their bias to one side and seriously examin the world we live in.
Let's make a deal; I'll learn to read if you can learn to take some accountability for your actions.
That's not how this works. You started the argument, were summarily trounced and now feebly retort on the way out? Do better. Start with yourself.
Will do, because unlike you, I look at myself for improvement, not the nameless of society forcing me to buy flashier things.
Clearly. Yep. Sounds like you typed that and reread it to yourself in the mirror, too.
