this is quite difficult to write. i was going to namechange but then thought oh fuck it.
had quite a big argument with DH last night about feminism. well, maybe not about feminism itself, but about how much i am talking about it. i am not explaining well.
ok. basically DH said to me last night could we just not talk about it for a while. and i was a bit taken aback, and said you know, why? and he said its so bloody depressing. he said that he quite often struglles to sleep at night thinking about some of the stuff i tell him and he just wants to stop thinking about it.
he says having DD makes it all so much worse and he feels powerless and helpless and he just wants to give it a break.
none of this is unreasonable. what has upset me is that now i feel like he is one less person i can talk to about all this stuff and i hate it. and i feel totally shit that i have been upsetting him and he didnt tell me because he says he couldnt think of a way to say it without sounding like he doesnt care. and now we have had this big argument.
i was going to put this in relationships but i guess i am looking for reassurance from others who think like i do, who have good husbands like i do about how to sort of get through this.
