So much casual hatred of men and masculinity on this platform. Unrelated: anybody knows where all our trans masc friends are?
I know, there is a lot of masculinity trauma out there, we do live in a patriarchy after all. But I'm trying to heal, and finding myself in a bubble that virtuously embraces its trauma is not helping towards that goal.
The counter to toxic masculinity is healthy masculinity, not toxic antimasculinity.
Pronouns
Please be kind and:
1. Normalize using they/them as gender neutral/agnostic pronouns for everybody, including for cis people (unless stated otherwise, obviously).
2. Conversely, you cannot โand should notโ infer a person's gender from pronouns.
3. If you want some exclusive non-binary pronouns for yourself, please pick something else. There's plenty of neopronouns and it/its waiting for you.

Hug me like one of your Swedish sharks
