Oh, Jessica, I have been a long-time subscriber to your website, but now I think a lot less of you.

I do not have astrological insight to give you on this. Still, I know from a long life and long historical experience that this culture war and this 'victory' as you very mistakenly name it, has just made the world far less safe for all of us, particularly women.

You might think we've won something here. In fact, we've lost. Gender and gender identity has ALWAYS been fluid and had NEVER existed in the binary; the native Americans had their 'two-spirits,' butch 'dykes' who have lived their lives as men, femme men who have lived their lives embracing all things female have been with us forever. Transgenersism has existed since people have existed, and have been recorded since people have kept records.

(As have straight men who break into women's restrooms to rape people and prison guards and prisoners who will rape for control and dominance, having absolutely zerofuckingshit to do wiht gener. )

And do you know what we have won now? A 'definition' of what it is to be a woman - a definition DECIDED BY THE FUCKING GOVERNMENT. The same government that has the power to declare who is or is not a 'citizen,' or a 'terrorists,' based on prevailing political winds. The same government that has in the past and can in the future declare women such as yourself a 'witch.'

So, congratulations on putting all of us in t a tinier and tinier box and for giving men like Trump the power to define us. Good job.

All along you correctly said the astrology would hold up in favour of women. Amazing.
