The shores of Australia have been graced by the lovely presence of none other than Milo Yiannopoulos, provocateur, debate-creator, shit-stirrer and basically the man who set me on this path on the first place. He is a motivational speaker, I would give him that label, since he inspired me to accept and be who I…… Continue reading Welcome To Australia, Milo! Meeting The Dangerous Faggot For Judgement Gay
I knew when I decided to live my life in this way, prioritising time for my family first and foremost as a domestic woman, that I would be judged for this for the rest of my life. Discriminated against, especially and maybe even openly hated. While I know this very well, it can be difficult…… Continue reading Handling Hardships: Discrimination and Being There For Your SO

I am honestly just gobsmacked to read this piece of hope. Just gobsmacked and honestly, happy. Thrilled. There were a couple of times I rolled my eyes though overall, I am liking the tone of this article and more importantly, what the numbers and facts are saying. There are more women like me, like us,…… Continue reading The Housewives Of Gen Y: Finally, Some Hope!
Many famous women who are admired and loved for their beauty, wisdom and love in history didn’t sit there with sweat pants (or whatever the historic equivalent is) and unkempt hair while cursing left and right. You can have the best grasp of femininity, but your SO (or future SO) will not have the chance…… Continue reading That Stepford Gal Lessons 101: On Elegance, Manners & Poise:
Some months ago, at the start of my new relationship I made some commitments to myself to keep on my end on everything.

In Australia and many other countries, this Sunday is the special Mother’s Day, which to me is a somewhat bittersweet time. All the imagery of smiling mothers, feminine gifts and flowers make me a little melancholy yet hopeful at the same time. As some of you would know, I was raised by a single father,…… Continue reading Happy Mother’s Day: Maybe One Day For Me?
Many of you would notice here that I use the same sort of style for the images that I pair with my blog posts.
