also different sides of the family. they don’t know each other

good luck with england!!

that said i LOVE the insanity that characters have have long monologues detailing their ancestry and their grandfather’s claim to fame in the middle of active combat. no notes homer

i still dont understand what an air fryer is or why I wouldn’t just use normal kitchen equipment

in what universe am I buying a Dyson vacuum like let’s be for real for real

“having been …,” wtf is this sentence construction. who do i think i am, caesar

anyway no one wants to hear all this which is why i just vaguetweet instead of saying anything 😮‍💨

all of this is just normal misogyny but applied to men!! but basic-feminism has a very clear women-are-victims/men-are-oppressors dichotomy that grants the (woman) speaker a privileged position of being incapable of wrongdoing AND prevents productive analysis of how gender dynamics affect everyone.

both women and other men expect men to behave in certain ways and mistreat the ones that don’t! eg women act rly weird around men who are effeminate - its unprofessional, its a fake put on, theyre shallow, theyre basically one of the girls and not rly a guy, they’re doing it for attention, etc etc.

however, more frustrating for me is that it’s just wrong!! on a large scale, this statement is true - eg abortion access - but applying larger frameworks to interpersonal dynamics glosses over wayyy too much nuance.

a minor annoyance is the implication, in saying this to me, that i am part of the group following rules rather than making rules. and by extension, no matter what i do to transition or how long i live as a man, ill never get away from “femaleness”. blegh.

oh sure! the one I was vaguetweeting about was a friend complaining that “women don’t make the rules about men that they have to follow” [with implication that women do have to follow rules made by men].

double psychic damage when it’s someone who’s trans saying these takes

I'VE SAID IT BEFORE AND I'LL KEEP SAYING IT
