Be more.
No, be less.

Show me who you are.
Ooops, but not that part.

You are enough as you are.
Except when you do it that way.

Trust your intuition.
You don’t know what your body says.

I support your truth.
It’s not appealing when you ruffle feathers.

You have such a pleasing appearance.
Who do you think you are?

I accept women in their power.
You are so over the top.

Your feelings matter.
Suck it up.

I champion women’s freedom.
Can you tone it down?

Sit up straight.
You shouldn’t flaunt your breasts.

Loosen up.
Stop being so uninhibited.

I love your wildness.
You’re making people uncomfortable.

I want you to be happy.
I’m not happy unless you agree with me.

Your beauty is admirable.
I can’t believe you use your beauty to advance.

Let yourself shine.
It’s dangerous to draw all that attention.

It’s important to follow your natural rhythm.
You’re crazy.

Do your best.
Your best never measures up.

You’ll go places.
How dare you.

With all that I am,

Kendra E Thornbury, MA
