A Housewifes purse

It holds a pencil and a hairband

It holds a mouthwipe for my child

It holds a microfibre cloth

And some handkerchiefs

My kitchengloves hang off the waist band

And it has ruffles

I can wear it under my baby carrier

Or loosen the top to nurse

It protects my dress from the spit-up

Did I mention the ruffles?

That is all.

No wait, I forgot. It also cinches in my waist!

I can say it here, in the most unlikely safe space there is. But my aprons have seen much scorn. Some thought I wore them in jest. Some thought they were fetishwear. Some just asked "why?!!", aghast at the symbol of (Patriarchy? Suppression? Opression? IDK).

I love my aprons.

Thank you for reading.

_Tl;dr: aprons are nice _
