Women had shame at one time.
Shamed to be single after age 25.
Shamed to be with an evil man.
Shamed to be a single mom.
Shamed to be divorced.
Shamed to not be a virgin before marriage.
Shamed to be loud in public.
Shamed to cheat on her husband.
Shamed to accept welfare or public assistance.
Shamed to live off the government and get food stamps.
Shamed to have an abortion.
Shamed to hit a man without good cause.
But now, times have changed, for the modern woman. The things that use to be shameful are now the source of her power and the symbol of her self-proclaimed independence.
