I hate how my sister acts towards me. I ignore her to the best of my ability because she is so demanding, rude, and critical. Yesterday and today she brought her friends over. I had just made myself, my brother and my mom a batch of shrimp fettucini alfredo. I spent a good half hour making it, because a) I like to cook and b) I was hungry. Last night, when I was working on seconds, my sister brought her friends to the kitchen to eat. Without asking me, they ate the rest of the food I'd made, leaving none to my brother. This morning, my sister brought them over again and they just asked to use my computer since my sister's computer doesn't work. I'm not going to give them my computer to shit around on because a) it's mine and b) they don't know how much of a bitch Sonia has been to me in the past 8 months. The thing that ticks me off the most about it is that Sonia has the nerve to ask- not even them. She has physically and emotionally abused everyone in this household, and gets annoyed with the tiniest things. For example, yesterday she really needed to get to Forest Park and didn't want to walk. My mom and I were about to leave for the store so she asked for a ride. Since my mom takes her time doing everything, Sonia was bickering the entire time for us "taking so long" WHEN WE WERE DOING HER A FAVOR. I cannot stand it! She is one of the most hardest people to live with because she's territorial, selfish, filthy, and never satisfied. I can't wait til she goes to college.
I am angry. I am angry that men in this country can freely purchase condoms and are covered by insurance for stupid shit like Viagra (simply recreational), but women cannot be covered for birth control? All these bastard, conservative politicians say that sex is for procreation, and if I am a woman in want of birth control I am using it simply for RECREATION? Let me introduce myself, assholes.
My name is Lizzie, I am a 16 year old female, and I got my period for the first time when I was 11 years old. When did you get your period? Oh, right, you've never had one! Do you know the nauseating, burdening, awful pain my periods have caused me since the moment blood dripped out of my vagina almost six years ago? I have cried, sobbed, curled into balls of pain and discomfort simply because I was born a female. Millions of girls across the world have felt my pain, silently, pretending to be okay. Let me give you an example of this shit: About a year ago, I got my period one hot, summer night. Because my periods cause me an excessive amount of pain, I have never pushed the issue of using larger tampons because I didn't want to hurt myself anymore. Not to mention my periods are so heavy, filled with clots, they have literally pushed a tampon out of my vagina. Well, my mom was making a delicious soup that night on my behalf to ease the ache in stomach, back, arms, thighs, legs, and this one vein that pumps to hard with pain I can feel it in my toe. I realized I needed to change my hot, burning pad that made my butt wet with blood and sweat. I wobbled to the upstairs bathroom because that's where the fresh pads were located, and that's when it hit me - the bad cramps. The ones that make me feel like I'm going to faint. I fell onto the toiled because I literally could not support my own body. I shook while I attempted to clean myself and change my pad quickly. This part of the story blurs in my mind.. I remember crying and falling, wishing I was strong enough to keep my head up so I wouldn't fall onto the floor without having pulled up my pants, where I would be left to literally bleed myself to sleep. I screamed for help, because I knew I was on the verge of fainting. No one heard my calls. Somehow, I managed to make it to my bed, where I remember shaking violently. Thankfully my phone was on my bed and I called my mom. She brought up a bowl of soup, because I was starving, but with the energy knocked out of me and the feeling of vomit in my gut, I couldn't bring myself to eat the meal I'd been waiting an hour for. I fell directly into sleep, and I didn't wake up until the next day. I told this story with as much accuracy and detail as I could, because that is exactly what I've had to deal with in my past. There are many other stories to contribute, but you still just don't understand. Do you? Do you see my anger when you provide men (who will never have a period, give birth to a child, breast feed, carry around a growing fetus, etc) with easy access to condoms? To Viagra? Condoms, which will only benefit them for "birth control," just so they can have sex with whoever they please! It won't benefit them for cramps, menstrual control, or anything we have to suffer through! Good job. You're making this country a better place. |
AuthorHi, my name is Lizzie. I'm about to turn 18, and I'm worried a lot, and I love food, and I lack self-control a lot, and I'm really talkative, and none of this information is important, yet I'm compelled to say it all. This is my blog. Archives
