Girly law of power #16: Master the art of silence

from The Baddest Bitch in the Building

A big flaw of the patriarchy is that it assumes power is loud. The good news for the girlies is that because there’s so much emphasis on being loud and obnoxious, the power behind silence is completely neglected. That's where law 16 comes into play.But also...WHY IS IT that when a man is quiet, he's "thoughtful." But when a woman is quiet she's "lost, confused, disengaged, a stupid idiot, blahblahblah..." Not only are we labelled a hundred things when we're quiet, but we're also expected to be people pleasers and fill the silence to make sure other people are comfortable. At our expense. Because silence is pretty uncomfortable. Well guess what, in this episode we're going to discuss:How to stop taking silence as rejectionHow to control the narrative using silence as a toolHow to use weaponized silence to get more info out of people than you would've by talking (this is NOT the same as stonewalling)A comparison of the responses of two women who got cheated on in the public eye: Princess Dianna and Cardi B✨Hope you love it and can use this law to make your dreams come true.
