Media images of crazy girlfriends are pervasive, and it’s been drilled into women that we should try to be the Chill Girl who drinks lots of beers and never brings up any of her problems. (Don't get me started on guys who label their exes “psychos.”) Women are constantly told that we’re overreacting. And she isn’t a bitch for asking that you spend at least some of the time you’re together not staring at your phone. Your girlfriend isn’t crazy for asking why you have sleepovers at your best female friend’s house, which you then “forget” to tell her about. Most women have, at one time or another, been slapped with those labels just for voicing totally normal and healthy concerns and boundaries. All of those things get thrown at women-sometimes all at the same time. She’s been conditioned to believe she’s overreacting.Ĭrazy.
