Please reblog if you are a girl and have ever been made to feel ashamed of one or more of these things (wanting to prove a point to some asshole):

-your weight

-your clothing choice

-your amount of make up

-having sex

-not having sex

-breast size

-having your period

-saying no

-not appreciating catcalls 

-masturbating

-body hair

However you celebrate Valentine's this year, find time to love yourself first and foremost. Don’t be selfish, narcissistic, or completely obsessed with yourself, but be self-full. Accept yourself, love yourself, be thrilled by the fact that you are perfectly created with a purpose. You are incomparable. Step into wholeness within yourself and all else will fall into place. Love is possible only when there is a deep acceptance of oneself that could lead to the acceptance of another and potentially lay the foundation of a better world. Acceptance creates the milieu in which love grows, the soil in which love blooms.

To young lesbians

You don’t have to “verify” or “test” your lesbianism by being with a man “just in case”. In that young lesbian self-doubt stage that some of us have, you don’t need to double-check yourself by “trying out” being with a man. 

Too many times have I heard older lesbians lament the fact that they slept with men as a form of self-hate and self-harm, or to try to convert themselves to be straight. My heart breaks for them

Too many times have men said to me “just try it” or “but how do you know you’re a lesbian if you’ve never been with a man?” or “there’s no harm in experimenting!”

Don’t worry, young lesbians, you never have to be with a man. There are lesbians who have lived their whole lives without being with a man. You know you’re a lesbian by the fact that you’re solely attracted to women. That’s it.
