Keira Knightley and her essay on the childbirth experience
Keira has penned about her experience during childbirth and also the post-partum period in an essay called Feminists Don’t Wear Pink (And Other Lies). She wrote to her daughter about how it was to have visitors in the hospital after her first baby was born.
She said:
“My breast is out in front of them all and I don’t care. Your life is my life. You need me. I’m there. F*ck them all with their eyes watching, their embarrassed faces at my animalistic semi-nudity. Is this soft motherhood?”
Keira made it a point to also talk about Kate Middleton and the people’s crazy expectation that the royal daughter-in-law should pose with the baby immediately after giving birth.
There were some who assumed that you writing so, Keira was, shaming the royal family member. But Keira categorically denied doing so. She added that people have missed the main point of her essay.
She explained it:
“I think it’s very interesting that certain parts of the media have, I don’t want to say purposefully, but let’s just say misrepresented my meaning and exactly what I said. So I would suggest to those people in the media that they re-read the entirety of the essay and not just take one bit out of it because the comments that I made are completely about our culture that silences women’s truths and forces us all to hide and I absolutely did not shame anybody in any way, in fact quite the opposite.”
