From The Mother

The mother is a weapon you load
yourself into, little bullet.

We've all heard it: someone's sister, wife, mother… how quick they are to weaponize the roles of women. They use the mere existence to protest this or that measure or law, never seeing the way they perpetuate the hatred and violence by relegating them to mere objects in a man's life.

Then they want to put rules on who is a woman, each rule more restrictive, as if they can legislate the rest of the world away.

They're loading the guns, these men and those women that enable it.

One of us is going to have to pull the trigger.
