I loved this so much. I was recently thinking about privilege and reflected that my greatest privilege is that no man I’ve ever been fond of has ever been unkind or unloving to me. This essay has made me realize that, even with all that reflection, I took my men for granted. From my dad and brother, to my husband and late son, the men I’ve loved would all, 100%, burn the world down to protect me. This is why, I now realize, I’ve been so very moved by this coverage - especially Nancy’s - of men sending their dependents off to safety and then going back to fight a freaking army for their homes.
Wonderful Nancy, great stuff here.
Thank you xx
