I was thinking about my childhood and noticed that I was different from the other kids in my school and neighborhood. I didn’t like how pink was related to girls and blue to boys, I hated that the red ranger never was a girl, I hated that I couldn’t play with boy’s toys and I absolutely loathed fashion, makeup and all the things girls at my age used to care. In short, I just hated everything about patriarchy.

So, when I found out what and how important feminism is I felt really happy that I already had a little feminist side and that there were so many people who thought just like me.

    That awkward moment when hating things associated with femininity is patriarchal.
