The people who you actually want to be around won't judge you anyways. Sure, sometimes it's worth it to avoid other people's judgement (e.g. if it's someone you're forced to spend time with, like your coworker, or if your safety is on the line). But worrying about people's judgement for the sake of it is just shackling
Mam, you have officially entered your bog witch era. This is one of the more glorious periods of your life.
I'm not a girl, and I have this mindset.
Eat my shorts!
I'm a guy, but I was born with a hand anomaly that I was mercilessly teased about when I was a kid. I had this realization when I was in kindergarten, and it gave me the confidence to be who I want to be for the rest of my life. It is indeed a powerful mindset if you can actually believe it, though it does make you a bit of an outcast when the other kids realize teasing doesn't work on you. Even the kids that don't tease their peers will think you're weird for not reacting to it.
Why would this apply only to girls?
Why not? Girls and boys face different social dynamics
OP: I like waffles.
YOU: oh so you hate pancakes?
OP: No man. WTF are you talking about? Those are 2 different things.
No one said that it did.
Because that's their lived experience. You want to post about guys, go ahead.
cause traditionally/stereotypically feminine things are seen as stupid, useless, and cringe while masculine ones are seen as serious, deep, and respectable.
trans people also show that being a man is seen as an "upgrade" while being a woman a "downgrade" (trans men don't get a fraction of the hate trans women do). same thing with tomboys-femboys.
plus, a man and woman could do the exact same thing (being assertive for example) & the perception will be different (woman - bitch, man - boss).
If you think boys aren't ridiculed (for literally anything) you've never been to school.
So, boys, might as well do what you want.
It doesn’t say that it only applies to girls its a screencap of part of conversation from people we have little context about.
And “sir”
Shit like this makes my blood boil... "Trauma-dump”… Posting something here that deliberately leaves out half the population …
This is a shitpost community.
So it's trauma-dumping when a man does it, but when a woman does it it's just "a part of a conversation" or "women talking about their experiences"?
I think that double-standard is precisely what this conversation is about.
We talk about how it's an issue that men aren't allowed to talk about their problems or their feelings, but that's clearly just an abstract idea to some people because when men actually do try to talk about those things, it's always the same reaction.
Not at all…
It just appears rather obvious from that text that Asetru their anger against op came from a very specific personal injustice done to them. Channeling it in such way where you direct anger at a demographic is toxic, regardless of gender.
I do disagree a lot with how op responded, they where over reacting in a similar way, i didn’t call them out because the longer this ordeal went on the more people seemed to prove that they have a real point to be frustrated about it.
You did prove the same thing. My comment isn’t gender specific, i don’t know what Astetru identifies as (thats part why i put the sir is in quotes) any gender can argue in favour of any gender. That is not that unusual.
And yet you perceived it as directed at one gender and came in with a “but what about the other gender”
I really didn’t want to believe that this “always happens” but the evidence here says it either is or this is targeted trolling against op.
Girls was meant in a gender neutral way obv
