tbh will never forgive radfems for appropriating 'why don't you think about why you feel that way :)' as 'do it until you're Fixed and don't feel that way anymore'--especially when often they use it for conversion therapy in particular 🙃--because as a genuine, good faith, open-ended question to guide a toolset of other questions, it has brought me not only a lot of insight but SO much peace in processing things my brain would eat itself over otherwise

#moogletalks #radfems cw #conversion therapy cw #braintag #like the open-endedness here is the strength of it bc it puts you in the mindset where you're thinking of /new/ questions to ask yourself #like you can add those questions into your toolset to apply as you go #but it's important to be able to examine something you feel doesn't /quite/ have the full picture; and figure out what data points you need #and like. internalizing that it's okay to put a pin in a question you genuinely don't have the tools to investigate further yet #and percolate on it and keep an eye out for tools you might come across elsewhere that are the key to discovering the truth #like i have a lot of questions already stored up; and important guidelines i use for them; and I Could Go On #but it has done SO much to help me think through my worldview and morals and how i would put them into practice #while also validating my own feelings and experiences; that they are an important factor and data point in themselves #and that trusting my gut when something doesn't feel quite right is not just allowed but important #even when it's something i can't in good conscience just leave at that without reconciling what's going on here #compare that to the spirals my brain goes into when i /don't/ do that and..... yeah #fuck radfems man leave a single well unpoisoned challenge (impossible)
