It feels so blessed being an ex Muslim woman
I [17f] consider myself a blessed ex Muslim. Although i am a closed ex muslim but gladly my family isn't overly conservative. I still have to face many nonsense and useless restrictions but today, let's talk about self love. I wanna share how much I've started loving myself after leaving islam. It really sucks being a Muslim woman. Now i feel how awful it is being a muslim woman. What i considered rights and freedom were actually meant to oppress women.Since I've left islam, I've observed a lot of positive changes in myself.
I am free now, i am finally free. I can finally feel like an actual human being, not somebody's possession. I have my own identity. I am not supposed to obey somebody. In islam you're constantly reminded that you're nothing but a piece of shit. And that you're only made to fulfill the needs of a man. As islam says that first woman eve was created from adam to fulfill his needs and to beat his loneliness.
The sole purpose of women in islam is to marry a man right after she hits puberty and conceive his children. I have finally overcame the period shame and stigma, realizing that i am not a dirty creature when i am on my periods. Its a completely natural phenomenon. Its non of my fault. So should i be ashamed? Its allah's fault not mine.
And there are many more things that i can't even count. I'm so glad that i left this misogynistic and biased cult. I love myself more than I've ever before.
My fellow ex mooses girlies, feel free to add more points to my post and do share your experience after leaving islam. I'd love to hear the positive changes you've observed in yourself>3
