Freewrite Day 513 Ceiling

I am not a feminist and I have now lived through two times of this goings on by other women. In the 1960’s and early 1970’s it seemed to be more about trying to break through and join men on their own turf. In the 2010’s it was more about hating men.

I think I am a humanist. I like everyone and never can see how they are different.

Wasn’t it hard to live in Thailand for two years and not be able to talk to anyone? No.

Wasn’t it hard to be in Miami where people on spoke spanish in the 1980’s? No.

Wasn’t it hard to live in a small town in Belgium where no one spoke English when you were a teen? No

The harder times are always when I can speak the language and people expect me to keep up with what is going on and fit in.

"What do you feel about this news story?" I never heard of it and do not care.

This annoys people and they want me to be more like they are.

When I don’t speak the language they already know I’m odd and things go better for me.

So how is that about a ceiling? When I was The Fat Lady in Accounting I was always up higher in rank than I “should have been” as a woman. But I obviously did not sleep my way up to get there, so I was always accepted as just being smart.

Go forth and be weird is what I guess this means to me.

My post is for the #freewrite daily challenge by @mariannewest. Freewrite is a great way to post on steemit when you do not think you have the time, or talent, or anything to say. It’s a great way to start regular posting on steemit. I know you can do this too! Here is Marianne’s freewrite prompt post for today. Give it a try and surprise yourself.
