shame.

(This does not give you any right to speak ill of my country or to believe any stereotypes about us, this is a past point of view not completely mine, so this has all changed radically.)

I grew up in a place where women don't have a voice , I grew up watching my mother give up her dreams and ambitions because she's a women  ,I'm not going to sit here and lie to you telling that society is to blame , Yes society has a hand in it and a big one at that , but that doesn't mean it's the root cause, where I come from women were forbidden from many things, such as traveling without a man or  even leaving the house , I was seven years of age when I began to notice , I was never allowed to have a bike , to go to the park like my brothers were , the only time women are allowed to go out is if they had a men with them or they would get arrested and sent home , women were hidden spoken of as if they are shame itself ,I've always wanted to be a men I want to know what it feels like to have the chance, to have the voice to be heard, to be seen , to not feel shame of myself of who I'm , of my face .
