Really enjoyed this Anju, wonderful nuanced look at feminism. I shy away from the term because it can feel very judgemental even though I probably espouse a feminist ideal (I work and my partner is the homemaker). I love the premise that feminism should be about choice and all choices celebrated & supported 👏
Your essay was shared with me just today and I so wish I had gotten it earlier. I did just tag you in mine. The way I phrase is is that it fees like society as accepted that "To be a successful woman you must be indistinguishable from a successful man."

Thanks Orla. Appreciate you taking out the time to share this :)
Another great post. They are always so thoughtful and present a really well constructed argument, especially the anecdotes.
Thank you Jon.

Great piece Anju. And this recent post supports your thesis. https://www.polymathicbeing.com/p/rediscovering-the-goddess
