uh oh

some truth

some truth that was so obvious but I've never really spotted it until now

"I've read that our entire lives, we were raised - and it’s a generational problem - to believe only one woman can be at the top," she said.

"There’s one woman who can get the man. There’s one woman who can be, I don’t know, anything.

"So then all the others feel like they have to fight each other or take that one woman down instead of being like, let’s all lift each other up.

"I'm still trying to figure it out. I’m just trying my best over here. Why am I getting attacked?"

From BBC news article

so many films and TV and stories show women competing and having to win and only one gets to do best

how fucking dumb when you think about it

I feel my mindset getting dragged that way too, imagining fake situations where I "win" and it's just stressful and dumb. Literally wasting my time

need to try and think about changing the game to win / win instead of how to win a win / lose
