The Stars and the Cookie Jar

I am a secularised, modern, educated career woman.

I want to get married and have kids. I'm covering my hair.

What is with me?

... well, of course, there is the fact that I wish to do all this with another woman.

And I was just thinking, fifty years ago, we couldn't be. We wouldn't have the support of friends, or the benefit of our jobs, to lend us some of the required fierce and fearless independence.

It's amazing, the strides the world has made. Here's hoping we don't lose that ground.
