Happy thoughts!

I do not agree with this. It's literally telling women that their responsibility is to do all the work to level up their relationships and bodies, but to be happy with it because it is apparently more "sophisticated and powerful" than being a man. If emotional labor and body vigilance is so damn sophisticated and powerful, then why aren't men clamouring to level themselves up by taking it on? It sounds like the quote is goading women to take up their socially assigned role without complaining about it.

In religious traditions where reincarnation is actually taught, it has been traditionally taught that to be incarnated as a woman is a lower position than to be incarnated as a man (see this example) and reincarnation as a man is necessary before enlightenment can be attained.

This is giving me major ‘not like other girls’ vibes— is this arguing that women should NOT be complaining about solely having to elevate their relationships or am I just missing something??
