I can’t sleep. It’s not a hard sell for me to believe there is evidence of otherworldly beings navigating, living and or hiding in the cosmos and oceans..seems perfectly logical to me.
I can wrap my head around that, we live in a vast universe.
What’s not logical is that as a woman, I am required, by law, to be obedient, and pay taxes into a system that then uses those dollars against me.
Somewhere, there is a room where men gather to decide that my daughter isn’t worthy of the same protections their sons have.
As women, we are not constitutionally protected. That’s wild!
What’s even MORRE bizarre than aliens, is that the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) has satisfied all requirements to amend the constitution, despite Congress giving an arbitrary deadline for ratification.
The ERA was introduced in the early twenties, adopted by Congress in 1972, and ratified in 2020, special thanks to Virginia. 
The take away for me is this. 
For over one hundred years, on many desks have sat a piece of paper with fancy words and legal jargon hoping, pleading, and soundly making a case as to why women deserve to be constitutionally protected.
That’s hard to believe.
