Harriet

So, I’m married to a farmer- which makes me a ‘farmers wife.’ I have a degree in agriculture and successfully ran my own farm for 6 years but no matter. I can handle all of the sexism sent my way- alot! but i have just had a daughter- and from day 1 of her being born, this perfect little baby all i hear is ‘you’ll need to have another one then, a boy to take over the farm’ or ‘oh poor you my sister had daughters too’ I AM A GIRL so how is this acceptable to say to a girl? and its not just from men but other women too. Essentially my daughter is not good enough…
