Hey up women - someone has arrived to show us how to do 'womaning' right

Thank god - we were waiting for this revolutionary message.

I had no idea how to "take ownership of and assert agency over my own body" till this [person] policed the fuck out of 'what makes a woman'!

(PS I unashamedly enjoy sex too, but the stick-on-hearts would probably end up on the duvet, so not that revolutionary, as someone has to tidy up afterwards!)

I'd get very sweaty in that puffer jacket.

pombear · 07/10/2018 19:10

And the heels will make a right mess of the wooden floor that someone sanded three times before varnishing. (Women's problems!)

Put your legs together love you're not on the tube!!!

Also, I don't always have agency over my body. It has had two long term residents and feels like I am more and more out of control of it as it sprouts, spurts and generally doesn't do what I want it to do.

Try having a period love. Then talk to me about agency.

UnnecessaryFennel · 07/10/2018 19:14

Ahhh, women. We're all about the heart-shaped nipple stickers.

And I know I've never felt sexier than when wearing a tartan puffa jacket, amirite?

ThinkIveFoundYourMarbles · 07/10/2018 19:16
Hmm

Yes, women. Get your boobs out at every opportunity. It's just you taking ownership of and asserting agency over your own body. Honest.

OVAgroundWOMBlingfree · 07/10/2018 19:19

Bloody hell I though that was one of those animiated Instagram accounts.

Yeah, that's the thing isn't it tinlegs -there are occasions when women don't get to have 'agency' over our own bodies.

That chair looks rather tricky to express one's sexuality in. Tricky but not impossible I would guess.

ErrolTheDragon · 07/10/2018 19:20

Yes dear, we know; and a woman choosing not to 'express herself sexually' is also asserting agency etc.

Suggest a thinner jacket rather than half wearing a thick one, much more comfortable.

enrichedatthegulags · 07/10/2018 19:22

Yes, nothing says ownership of your body like putting pictures on the internet for anyone with an internet connection to see, and publishing them via Twitter therefore giving up rights over the picture.

I feel so empowered. Pass me the stickers kids, mama needs um for her nips.

R0wantrees · 07/10/2018 19:23

I saw some tweets yesterday which suggested MB may have 'gone nuclear'

Interesting timing with Lily Madigan's.

AngryAttackKittens · 07/10/2018 19:23

Can I express my sexuality in a comfier chair, and without the nipple stickers? Also not sure the spiky heels are a great idea, think of the poor bloke's thighs.

Bowlofbabelfish · 07/10/2018 19:24

I’m expressing myself by wearing a cardigan and underwear that could double as trawling gear.

You’ll catch your death like that ...

PutYourShirtOnMartin · 07/10/2018 19:25

Manspreading is such a pita

AfterSchoolWorry · 07/10/2018 19:25

That's a woman? Looks like a drag queen!!!

MrsTerryPratchett · 07/10/2018 19:26

Interestingly when I talk to women about agency, it's things like deciding if they want to breastfeed THEMSELVES, not because other people tell them. Or deciding birth plans. Or choosing to have a coffee when pregnant. Or being refused service while pregnant and buying something not on the 'approved' list. Or BFing in public. Or choosing what body hair to have.

As it pertains to sex and sexuality, it's more often telling women they are allowed not to have sex they don't want to have Sad

Bowlofbabelfish · 07/10/2018 19:26

Oooh yes AAK, you don’t want anything adhesive round the nipple. I got a breastfeeding pad stuck the wrong way round this morning, ever so sore to take it off.

53rdWay · 07/10/2018 19:28

I’m asserting agency over my own body by flopping it on the sofa with a mug of hot chocolate and slipper socks.

CottonTailRabbit · 07/10/2018 19:33

Isn't it great how so much of "women's lib" is apparently àbout making it easier for men to access women's bodies without consequence for the men. To empower the women. Obviously.

Tits out ladies! Empower thyself! *

  • Pls note empowerment only happens if men can witness your tits being out. HTH sisters.
WomaninBoots · 07/10/2018 19:35

This is crying out for a spoof using stickerwoman stickers tbh...

drspouse · 07/10/2018 19:35

Ooh, what's LM done now?

ChrysanthemumsAreMums · 07/10/2018 19:36

Put yourself first in a sexy way

boatyardblues · 07/10/2018 19:38

That perspex bubble chair and far too warm puffa jacket just screams sweaty butt crack ishoos. Not remotely sexy. Meh.

WomaninBoots · 07/10/2018 19:38

Involving more clothing as well obv... cos I encourage expressing agency by protecting yourself from catching cold.

ChrysanthemumsAreMums · 07/10/2018 19:40

I used to have one of those hangy chairs (it was wicker though, which is less sexy). Gave me motion sickness
