Agree as we get into our 40’s that we are just sick of taking peoples sh*t. I felt the Summit (which I loved) let me down when it covered women’s anger. Saying the above but disregarding a conversation around hormones & what can fix it. It’s one thing to finally find our voices & another to be searing with rage over literally nothing!! I needed answers over hormones and I wanted it NOW after my female Dr pointed to a Peri-Menopause list on the wall, you’re in this, with absolutely no guidance offered.

Everyone should definitely have the option of participating or not. If you put in, then you take out. Simple.

The Barbie movie made me uncomfortable. I would have been mortified if I went with my partner who absolutely treat’s women with respect. There was just a lot of man bashing & the last line in the movie was eye rolling ridiculous.

Sorry if I missed it but does it take a full face of makeup off?

I totally agree with everything in this article. I cut off last New Years and haven’t looked back. I feel free from the cruelty and control and have never been happier!

Let’s not forget who else it will benefit boys:

Share the Dignity is a charity that works to distribute period products to women, girls and anyone who menstruates, especially those who have experienced homelessness and domestic violence. To date, it has donated over 3.5 million packets of pads and tampons to those who need them.30 May 2022.”

Yes, the pill comment is mind blowing! Thanks to Mamamia I have been looking into Peri Menopause and at our age (40’s) trying to shift kilos is even harder. The one take away I got from their online session was to seek a Dr that specialises in Peri & Menopause as they can review your hormones and give good solid advice around it if in Peri. A general GP doesn’t generally want to go into all of the details and treatments.

I hope you are ok? You can make a complaint through AHPRA to hopefully prevent other women experiencing this with him. Sending you big hugs.
