A’lta suddenly flaps her eyelashes long and almost comically. As if her mind suddenly cleared from realizing what she might have done and what her tantrums might have resulted in.

– And not because I’m afraid of the possible consequences, – I continued my cautionary rant, “but because, unlike you all-powerful moonshiners, I don’t play by dirty rules. And I know that the truth is on my side, which means that no one, not rich Mr. Important Ass, not his empty-headed jealous bride, not the important father of his empty-headed bride can throw me and my children out on the street. You may find this hard to believe, disrespectful A’Lita, but there are plenty of women in the world who know how to achieve something in life on their own, not through the bunks of dubious moonshiners.

It’s like she’s trying to say something adequately reasonable, but she clearly doesn’t have the brains for it. No, I am very positive about all women and believe that each of us has every right to live our lives the way we want and to fill our lives with what we want. Some of us “pour” tons of beauty treatments into ourselves, live a life of shopping and amaze those around us with every fashionable “bow”. Someone plows in the gym and breaks the Olympic record in the pentagon. Someone gives birth to her husband’s five children, learning the hundred first recipe for steamed turkey meatballs and inspirationally knitting warm socks. Some protect the environment, go to peaceful demonstrations, and advocate for minority rights. We are all different, and that’s fine. As long as some don’t start teaching life to others.
