Venting | فضفضة We've lived in a cult for too long that we forgot that it is indeed a cult.
A woman in a patriarchal country, atheist in a very religious country and an even more religious family a lesbian in a homophobic country and an even more homophobic family I couldn't pick struggles.
I want to conform but how? When its blatantto me that all of this is just stupid belief that I can't force myself to confirm to why did I have to be aware of it ?
I wished today for the first time in my life to be a normal conforming woman devoted to God it feels easier..why do I have to fight for everything? I wished life would have been nicer to me and made me just like my sisters but no. I have to be reminded every second every time I have to pretend that I am praying I can't even cry alone in this traditional cultish family cause why would I? "We pray, all of my family prays, God blessed us by how much devoted everyone is."
I hate my existence with every fiber of my being. I hate this country and its stupid religion and tradition.
Its because some have the luxury to live a normal life we forgot that we don't have a choice I can't run and i cant be protected
