“Different Drum” – Linda Ronstadt (1970)
That was the Stone Ponies (for which she was the singer), and it wasv recorded in the 1960s (at least according to the "Mellow Sixties" cassette I wore out when I was a kid).
Side note: Linda Ronstadt was my dad's biggest celebrity crush. He was heartbroken to find out she was a dirty commie.

chasing external validation
those of you that had a problem with chasing external validation: how did you fix it?
i have a need to be accepted by everybody, and often that need clashes with my principles, like i'll seek validation from people that i fundamentally don't respect, like gossiping low-class women and liberal beta men. i also have trouble with frame. for example, if i'm dealing with a feminist clique at work, at first i'll understand that they're just shitty people, but after a while i'll start doubting myself, whether i'm in the wrong.
personally i have no other solution than just keep on keeping on: stay away from bad people, don't fold and try to become their bitch, even at the cost of them shitting all over me, and maybe overtime i'll build tolerance to their toxicity. i also noticed lifting weights doesn't help. i wish there was some mental button that turned me into a narcissist who doesn't give a fuck what these people say. keep in mind, most people i deal with are ok and go about their business, but the shitty people make sure that they're the loudest and most impacting.

Typo-MAGAshiv - Strong, independent woman weekend edition: spent years becoming a doctor, but dreams of being a wife
Around 7 years ago a bunch of Japanese medical schools were found out to have been marking down female applicants to avoid staffing shortages later down the track when they left the medical field due to marriage or childbirth. Given the competitiveness of admission, the years of training, and the amount invested in each doctor, it's a real concern in public health.

@deeplydisturbed yeah as long as they have a place to crash late at night or early AM and not on the streets after having fun, they don't care about much of anything else as a base motivation

The only difference between "modern-day feminism" and the feminism of the 1848 Seneca Falls Conference is a date stamp.
Ideologically, they're fundamentally identical. Anyone who says differently is selling something.
