BREAKS UP IN LOCKDOWN SUCK
I still look like a boss bitch though.
I don’t know what it is,
Maybe the fact I can’t see my bestie and get wasted and then be sick behind a van and try to chat up a man who is equally terrified but also attracted to me?
Maybe the fact I can’t emotionlessly go into a club, pull some random lad and feel like I’m whole again when they tell me I’m hot, and put their arms round me, before I leave their flat in the morning because they sound like a dying cow whilst they snore.
Maybe because I can’t go on a date, go back to his, engage in terrible sex and then leave with the excuse there’s probably traffic at 1am in the morning.
Maybe because we feel lonely during lockdown, and right now a break up makes you feel extra lonely.
Maybe because you feel like you’re not good enough for someone to hold onto you during lockdown.
Maybe because red wine, gin, and Jon Snow can’t heal the way I feel about myself.
Maybe break ups suck more because the world feels sad at the moment.
Maybe break ups during lockdown make us stronger.
Maybe I’ll still get to have a post lockdown pull and then promptly throw up in his toilet a few hours later.

LEGALLYFIERCEFEMINIST 🗣❤️
Welcome to all my 🆕 followers ❤️
It’s been a while since I introduced myself fully, so I thought that’s what I’d do 🙅🏼♀️
I am Rachel, I’m 24, and from Manchester.
I’m a law and feminist blogger, and I write about life and everything real.
I have a chronic condition that causes chronic pain, fatigue and joint dislocations.
I did a BA in English at Keele University.
Then I decided to do my GDL and LPC LLM at @u_law 👩🏼⚖️
I didn’t find it easy to get into law, at first I didn’t think I was smart enough.
I did work experience with one firm, and had a TC but lost it because the department I was working in was shut down.
I now work in a family law firm as a clerk for the time being.
This means I do most things you’d expect with a TC, because they’re seeing if I can have a TC, hopefully I prove myself very soon.
My job involves lots of care cases, which is all about the care of children, and whether their parents can care for them or they should go into foster care.
I love to read and write every now and then.
I love baths and I love anything lush.
I am single, and I enjoy writing about my dating life.
My favourite book is birdsong.
I’m so happy you’re following me and hope you enjoy my blog ❤️

Did I stutter? 🤔🤔🙅🏼♀️🙅🏼♀️
What do you do when a man laughs at you being serious,
or asks that you’re not serious?
I tell them I’m serious.
I use a strong tone.
I maintain eye contact.
It’s easy to feel small in a world that seems run by men.
And it can feel like you’re swimming against the tide.
Sometimes you might feel lost,
Or as if you’re the only woman in the room,
And sometimes you might be,
But you should be in that room,
And you should be fighting for what you believe.
Law is a challenging career,
And being a female in law isn’t easy,
We’re sometimes cut out.
But you have to work and work,
And keep on working.
You deserve to be in the room you’re in,
And I always tell them I deserve to be there,
And I let them know I mean business 💪🏻🗣🗣👸🏼👸🏼👩🏼⚖️👩🏼⚖️

NO MORE MONSTERS, I CAN BREATHE AGAIN ❤️❤️
I’ve learned that after every time I get treated like shit, I learn to talk about it more than the last time.
We have to stop asking for mediocrity.
Stop settling for 5/10.
Stop being okay with shit.
Stop compromising.
We were made to be loud.
We were not made to be extinguished.
We shouldn’t be silent.
We should speak more about things.
We are burning so goddamn bright,
That we can be seen for miles.
We were created as beauty, and waves, and curves, and everything in between.
We can go through hell.
We can see the monsters.
We can see that monster every morning in the mirror,
And we can tell it to fuck off,
Because we will not have it.
We are beautiful.
We are strong.
We are amazing.
We are worth everything we receive and more.
It’s time to stop accepting shit,
And to stop thinking that life is full of shit,
But there are beautiful moments, beautiful people and beautiful memories.
Keep your chin up❤️❤️

IF YOU CANT HANDLE MY WORST, YOU AINT GETTING MY BEST 👏🏻👏🏻
Why do I never practice what I preach? I’ve come to realise that dating with me has become a compromise,
I think if I compromise,
Then they’ll like me.
You can’t be too loud,
You can’t be too quiet,
You can’t be too quick,
You can’t be too slow,
You can’t be difficult,
But boys also like the chase,
But they don’t want to chase too much.
They like lipstick,
But they hate how it feels when they kiss you.
They know you’re smart,
But they don’t want to be outsmarted.
You can show skin,
But don’t show too much.
Sleep with them on the first date,
But they won’t stay with you.
Sleep with them on the third date,
But then they will think you’re a prude.
Call yourself a feminist,
And they will agree they’re a feminist too,
But then they will defend their friend who called a girl psycho.
Worse,
They will say the last girl they dated was psycho,
But then you will see the manipulation.
Don’t date too much,
No one will take you serious.
Date too little,
And you won’t seem experienced.
They don’t want you to have a strong job,
But they also want you to have a career.
They like your hair a certain way,
And god forbid you decide to change it.
You have sex with them,
When you might not want to,
You think it’s okay.
No matter how much I want to get away from the patriarchy and the shit it gives me-
I still feel a slave to it.
