Yes yes, and if I understood correctly, I think that your place is absolutely beautiful and full of gorgeous nature. Also, I will never stop finding interesting how various cultures work, because in my country being in the military as a choice of living is highly frowned upon and is publicly condemnable as my country tends to be more left-leaning. But personally I believe that aside from politics, those people are praiseworthy because they risk their lives for the country almost everyday willingly. (for example here, we have aerial piracy every so often).
Exactly, women had been oppressed for so long and always dedicated themselves to others so much that they almost forgot that they are a person first and foremost and every other role (mother, wife, sister etc) has to come after that. So emotional/economical independence and courage are very important characteristics for a woman to have. I found your personal story very encouraging and sweet , I believe that you are truly lucky and blessed to have such a wonderful and thoughtful husband and believe me, this is not a given unfortunately. People nowadays(even in the old times) don't know how to connect and respect each other's personal will and marriage is a constant effort and fight for the both sides and not many people have an intention to do that.I also find it so great that you took so much of your time to help raise awareness of the female empowerment,to me, this is exactly how a proper maternal role model should be, in order to change parts of the world little by little, I believe that all generations have to come together for that cause, putting our disagreements aside, and then, the result will be beautiful.
Yes, I think you are right, thank you for tuly making me see things from your side of the story. It's fairly important for other generations to make themselves included in their children's preferences, as it creates a strong bond by showing them that they understand them. Also, it can be didactic too, because parents can share with them their opinions and wise advises based on their own experiences/knowledge of life on what to be careful about or not and guide them throughout life.
Omg, thank you so much dear for your lovely words, it really means so much, although I don't think I deserve it. I believe I still have a lot to learn about, but I'm trying to look into things in depth and not always be affected by public opinions, that's why I'm on this site and I definitely am with you on that as you don't have to agree with everything we say, I don't agree with everything others say either, but I believe that's the magical aspect of it, even though we don't always agree, by discussing our views we still exchange opinions and communicate and we actually take more info in, process it (and sometimes change our views) , than we can imagine.
Oh my, sorry for the long post!
