They tell us to smile at strangers. To be polite. To be patient. To be “understanding.” But no one tells us what it costs. The cost of ignoring harassment in the workplace. The cost of walking home at night with keys clenched in your hand. The cost of swallowing words you know would make you “difficult.” Every act of silence, every forced smile, is an unpaid bill. And women have been paying it for generations. #Entertainment #Books #Feminism #Reality #WomenRights
