Yes, to most of this.

Let’s be real though-women who express our anger, especially women who are first learning to do so, are difficult to be around! We are messy. We are not good at making others feel good because for the first time, we are worried about making ourselves feel good.

This is a good thing.

It is a growth thing.

The world has got to get used to women who get mad and say mean things and sometimes even dare make men feel bad about themselves. Men do need time to change, it’s true, but women need time to recognize and integrate all the hurt and shame we’ve been repressing for decades.

For once, men’s feelings are not the priority.
