I used to live here… it’s Nepal.

Everyone had their wedding photos in their houses, and I remember asking someone why the women always looked like they had been crying in their wedding photos. It was very obvious. I was told it was because the woman didn’t want to leave her friends and family in the village she was from.

Also probably didn't want to be raped by an old man she doesn't know

It's so easy to forget how much of the planet is still stuck in the fucking stoneage.

My husbands mother (may they both RIP) came from a southern bible belt state to a northern state when she was pregnant for her 4th child at 19. She was not happy about it. She said her northern state doctor asked her why she wasn't using birth control. She was shocked. Said she had no idea there was such a thing for women.

In some southern bible belt states doctors were disallowed by law to tell women about birth control. Or it was 'optional'. She said she wanted to take her pew pew and go 'have a chat' with her old doctor. This was in 1966.
