Why can't I just be a person? I feel like a person but I'm not a person because I'm a woman. Men can just be people but women are less than real people. I've always felt grateful that I don't live in the Middle East where I couldn't drive a car or go out on my own but the scales have fallen from my eyes and I see now that I am part of the underclass because I have a vagina. I tried to tell myself that it didn't matter but I was just kidding myself. I have a vagina and that makes me less important than if I had a penis even in 21st century Britain. I can't even imagine how bad women in other countries have it.
