I wrote a book (#postapocalyptic virus weirdness) which was published 2 months before the Covid lockdowns. This was an unfortunate marketing nightmare. 😆 If you fancy reading it…https://www.waterstones.com/book/as-the-world-falls-down/katy-nicholas/9781838406981

The expectation that we will cook, clean, raise the children, & care for aging parents while our menfolk sit on the couch watching television with a beer. We like television and beer, too. And we really like men who pull their weight around the house.

The expectation that we’ll lose weight, get a face lift & a boob job, & dress like we just stepped off the runway, all for some fat, balding slob who’s been in the same sweatpants all week. Do some abdominal crunches, put on a clean shirt, & trim your nose hair, for Christ’s sake. Make some effort.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

I said from day one that #lucyletby was innocent. It didn’t make sense. I say this as someone who has been gaslit repeatedly by the medical profession. I’ve since spoken to grieving mothers and midwives and nurses who are all convinced of her innocence.
