Honestly the best piece of advice I can give to younger girls trying to figure life out is to completely ignore men. I'm not being quirky or cute when I say that, I mean it seriously. Ignore men's judgments of you, ignore their insincere compliments, ignore their half-assed romance. Focus on developing yourself. Practice your art, play sports, do theater, volunteer, spend time with your friends, but do not put substantial effort into pleasing men. They'll be there for you to pursue when the time comes and if you want to. But nothing will waste your youth more than fighting for male acceptance.

Rape was already a thing back in the 1950s when women wore pleated, below-the-knee skirts. Rape was already a thing in the 1800s when women wore frocks and several Payers of clothing underneath. Rape has nothing to do with fashion and everything to do with rapists.

I hate to be the one who has to tell you this, but you’re *supposed* to care about other people in a functioning society.

Teach your daughter economic independence so in the future, she can have a partner, not a master. Teach your son to do housework so in the future, he can have a partner, not a servant.
