An apology to women everywhere

Compared to the world of skinny fashion models and media ruling the way women should look, act and feel, the Isthmus Zapotec culture of southern Mexico is a land of free thinking entrepreneurial warrior women. Tehuanas, as they have become known, run the markets, manage the family purse, and are generally regarded - even by the men - to be the more intelligent of the sexes. During the course of history they have inspired artists, intellectuals and politicians, and risen to the status of national icon of Mexico. I feel there are definitely some lessons we could learn from this culture, not least how to break free from the mould others create for us. Join us on a quest that delves into the structure of family and social hierarchy to try and find a real-life matriarchy!

But how are you supposed to change the laws while running from them? __________________ "I knew there was a reason I was supposed to meet you." Castiel says with a voice barely above a whisper. "And why's that?" I raise an eyebrow and smirk up at him, taking one of his moves. "Because, you complete me." __________________ "Why do you care if I leave?" I ask and he goes silent. "Because....." he trails off. "Because what, Atlas?" I ask again. His next words are so quiet they're hardly audible: "Do you think I meant to fall for you?" __________________ **Author's Note: If you enjoy the story, please please please, give it a shoutout.

I've always had a fascination with natural selection, so I've been loving the game Niche. But as I always do, I began forming a narrative around the game. And then I came up with this challenge! I'll have the rules as a chapter so you can do this too if you'd like. But the main thing is. . . I write a little journal entry for each day, from the perspective of the current matriarch! Okay, I hope you enjoy :)
