The most inconvenient truth is that men do misogyny because they get something from it. They get labor from intimate partners, they get social capital in their public circles, they get the benefit of the doubt, they get default respect and promotions and people listening to them and people afraid of them.

A conversation I keep having:

Person: What kind of guys do you like Kayla

Me: when it comes to guys I don’t care what they look like, I like voices and charisma

Person: can you give me an example?

Me: sure, here

Person:………but he’s ugly.

What part of voices are charisma is confusing!

And then eventually they push to get more information or ask me what physically I’m into and I’m like “hands” and they’re like no and they push and push until they get my insane person answers.

I don’t care if a guy has a receding hairline or is fat or is short at all! Is he magnetic??? Is he kind of gay acting??? Does he light up a room and inexplicably pull bad bitches? Now that’s what I’m talking about!

the really crazy thing about cooking is that once you practice it enough (for all the gamers reading this: "grind enough exp") your threshold for wuat counts as a low effort / depression / I Dont Really Want To Cook meal rises steadily and you can feel yourself becoming the kind of person whose "chill dinner" takes 1h45 and involves three pans

tumblr polls are like: normal everyday question?

1. first option that reveals the poll maker has an absolutely bizarre understanding of the thing they are asking about

2., second option that adds the worrying context that op considers the first option the normal answer,

"I cannot tell you the complete, fundamental shift that I have felt in the year since having surgery. I knew that I wanted top surgery for a decade; it's the longest I've ever thought about doing anything. The place where I went, I had that clinic's website open on my laptop for five years. It was this impossible mountain: I want that, but I'm never gonna get it. No one's gonna let me, blah, blah, blah. To have that be in the past now... I stand differently, I walk differently, I carry myself differently. It feels different in my body than it ever has. I have just never been happier. I've never been more centered. I've never felt more stable and present and alive. It's the best thing I've ever done for myself. It’s taught me a lot. The recovery process taught me about rest, accepting help, and caring for my body as something connected to me rather than separate from me, that I’m in opposition to: This is mine and I want to take care of it. I feel good in it and good about it. Part of cis people's fear around gender-affirming surgery is the fear of surgery at all — 'Oh, my God, but that's painful and scary!' My reaction to that is, 'No, no, you misunderstood. It was painful before. Your worry has kicked in at the wrong time. The right time to be concerned was about the pain I was in before this. I'm great now.' Everybody else's concern for me has been on a delay. There's no need to be concerned anymore. That's so freeing."
