I’ve been reading and commenting here for a couple of weeks now and I can’t believe the shift in my attitude towards men and my life as a whole. It’s done what years of therapy and books couldn’t!

I’m no longer terrified of ending up alone, or seeking male validation because I’m bored. I finally feel on an instinctual level (most of the time, at least!) that I AM ENOUGH and I WILL BE OK. In addition, my eyes have been even more opened to scrote behaviour and the patriarchy.

Perhaps coincidentally, or not, I’ve been chatting to a possible HVM for two weeks now and we have a socially distanced date soon. It’s extremely early days but his daily messages have been thoughtful, respectful, interesting and funny. This is the way it should be on OLD and I would encourage everyone to settle for nothing less.
