I do apologize for my absence. But I have been trying to get through this thing called life without catching a charge.
So my daughter started sex education classes at school. She is 10.
Every single day she comes home she has questions and my anxiety flares up. Fortunately, I handled the first day well. She was telling me how weird her private parts look. My feminist side came out full throttle. I told my daughter that no matter how weird it looks that is a part of me, you, and your grandma. Keep it clean and keep everything from getting into it. Then, she proceeds to tell me the teacher told her to always have two sanitary napkins in her bag at all times. Of course, I have pads but I was not ready to give my daughter any.
But the teacher is right. And I swear on everything my kid made sure I gave her two pads to put in her backpack.
I AM NOT READY.
But no matter how ready I am, my baby is growing up and I have to guide her to make the right decisions. Today, she said they learned how to say NO. Now, I think it’s ridiculous that we must teach our young girls HOW to say no to sex. But I was so relieved. As a victim of rape and molestation, I love the way this class was going. I had sex ed in middle school and I don’t remember a lesson about saying NO. Of course, I always knew no meant no. But when the violations happened to me, I blamed myself and felt there was a better way to say no.
But this is about my kid. And I am so not ready for her to know about sex, which she calls the “s” word. I believe it’s because I am a woman and know the adversities we experience from birth. I already know when my son goes through this my advice is going to be “don’t stick your dick in every willing cunt.” But this is my daughter. I am raising her to be a strong woman. Stronger than I ever was. Even the nasty ass little boys in her class are already poking fun at her. No matter how much I want to choke them the fuck out, I understand this is something my child will have to experience her entire life. And I need her to learn now to grow a thick skin. Because men are perverts. And demeaning to women.
If I am going to raise my baby girl right, she will not take any foolishness from anyone, male or female. Because Lord knows I will take a person’s life if they violate my daughter. Life or death sentence I don’t give a damn. So to avoid that, I will raise and teach my daughter the right way to walk around this cold world with her crown held high.
This is dedicated to anyone dealing with the stresses of raising a daughter in this day and time.
Yours Truly,
