I would give up the unessential [for my children]; I would give my money, I would give my life for my children; but I wouldn't give myself. I can't make it more clear, it's only something which I am beginning to comprehend, which is revealing itself to me.
All About Me
Biography:
I’m looking for love and romance, or to just have fun. I have a husband, two lovers-- marriage is so restricting—and children. Two lovers may seem excessive, but it’s better than to be very sexually repressed, prim, and proper. You may consider me an independent woman, determined to go at it alone. I’ve totally given up on the whole “mother-woman” role, which is so unlike my best friend Adele. I love to paint and listen to music. I am awakened!
Age: 28
location: Grand Isle, Louisiana
interests and hobbies: drawing and painting, attending parties and balls, making friends, rebelling against social and cultural traditions of my time, neglecting kids, and especially swimming
goals: to discover my true identity and to become a free independent woman who is able to fulfill her own emotional and sexual desires.
accomplishments:
-Have multiple kids without dying from birth-related complications.
- Learned to swim in one party
- Mastered my painting skills.
- Being able to freely convey my individual expression.
