No one is you, therefore no one else can write your words.

You have so much to give to this feminist community. I know how easy it is to look at your chapter 5 and compare that with someone else's chapter 20, but comparison is a thief of joy and joy is an antipatriarchal act. Don't let The Man get you down, because you, Ayo, have a gift to give to the world.

Hi Ayo. It’s always beautiful to read your piece. You are such a great and relatable writer.

It’s okay to feel down sometimes, take a break for as long as you need, and get back at it (if willing).

Truthfully, your words might make impact without you knowing. There are many people that would likely read, not comment but learn from you. The negative people are just usually the loudest.

At 18, many ladies aren’t aware of gender inequality neither are they doing any form of activism. At your age, you are doing extremely well. You are brilliant as well.

Well done for the good work. You are as enviable as those you envy.

Cheers! And wishing you an amazing year.
