eh they both can be true … they can both hold truth. yeah
TIL men consider themselves to be without human rights if they can’t legally pretend to be women
it's always "listen to [identity group] voices!" until its detransitioners' voices.
they don't want to hear them, because their stories gaining mainstream traction would upend their whole movement.
i simply do not respect 'non binary' people. You worked out that gender stereotypes are bullshit but all you took from it is 'i am a special interesting third thing, unlike all you boring peasants'
looking back on it, my enjoyment of m/m fan fiction kickstarted the whole thing. i think it’s a case for a lot of autistic women who feel kind of out place:
the “i’m so gay” phase, the tumblr ideology (bc it’s tied with fandom), the scared of men irl and just genuinely being weird about them, all while just actually being a normal straight girl
i just wonder what my life would be like if i never got sucked into tumblr 2010s world. if i never believed so strongly all those harmful beliefs tumblr perpetuated about gender, sexuality, anxiety, self love, etc. where would i be! who knows i might be married by now.
but oh well, we move on and are living fully now!
women who are so obsessed with texting are such losers. no wonder you can’t keep a man.
honestly i’ve never understood women like this anyway who try and have all these rules about dating and think it’s so complicated. even back in school i never got it. and i guess this behavior has just continued for so many??? y’all don’t wanna grow up??? i don’t even wanna be friends with them. it’s so annoying to hear about ‘oh he didn’t text me’ you’re 28 get a grip
nonbinaries and they/thems who are female and were raised as girls do tend to have the weirdest complexes. they're always like "i hate pink so i must not be a girl" or "i hate painting my nails so i must not be a girl" are you dumb. like genuinely, are you stupid. i went through a phase of 'i wish i was a boy' but it absolutely had nothing to do with superficial things like nail painting and everything to do with "menstruating is kind of scary at first" and "oh shit i really could become pregnant" ..... i feel like almost every woman has gone thru that.
even the straightest men paint their nails now. i feel like its never been more normal for women to go out barefaced, in baggy jeans, and still be....women. so. youre going to have to find some other thing to channel your internalized misogyny through, babes.
there was one experience i had in a college class in 2018 i keep thinking about
went to a very liberal college and was in the english program and so at that time everything was about gender ideology, queer theory, obviously propagating the liberal TRA perspective.
one girl spoke up questioning transness and cited the fact of trans-identified-males assaulting people in bathrooms.
and everyone else got so uncomfortable and acted like she said something violent & shrieked defenses like “That’s made up” or “that’s just in the UK”
the room was so uncomfortable and glared at her and she was basically silenced
i was part of the uncomfortable crowd because those situations are comfortable. and i believed in transness and gender ideology at that time. so i did think she was wrong.
but that girl was right! she was so right and brave to question this ideology and attitude she was having to endure in her classes!
sometimes i regret that i spent so much money on those classes, on that degree, just to be indoctrinated. i could’ve gone somewhere else and done a different program and learned the same skills but through better means.

I really believe there's some sort of "emperor's new clothes" phenomenon happening with Gen Z discoursers where they're too afraid to question the logic of some of the discourse being thrown at them for fear of appearing to be unwoke so they just blindly parrot it not to be excluded by their peers
"I don't feel like a girl" "I don't feel like a boy"
There isn't a specific way to feel as a girl or boy. Patriarchy has been forced to us how we're supposed to "act" in order to fit the patriarchal standard. Anyone can be feminine or masculine, anyone doesn't have to be feminine or masculine, it's okay to not "fit" in a gender stereotype. The point is we're not supposed to, we're just humans.
