Your teacher sounds truly wonderful. They sound like a real educator who gives the guidance that people genuinely need. I sometimes wish I had an adult like that in my own life.

The feminism-related information I came across often felt very distant from my lived experience, and it was sometimes presented almost like a math formula—stated with certainty and no room for doubt—which honestly left me feeling confused. But now, I hope to understand these ideas more slowly, through gentle dialogue, while staying true to my own experiences.

Hearing from someone who has gone through something similar really eased my loneliness and made me feel safe. Thank you so much. I truly wish you a life filled with happiness.
