My gender-fuckery and reality testing
Jun. 26th, 2021 07:47 pmThe world is big and confusing, and you know what? That's probably for the best. If the world were small enough for one human mind to experience and understand everything, well, it wouldn't be the vast, diverse playground that it is, would it? I don't believe in making things ideologically simpler for people to understand if I am sacrificing their ability to actually understand that thing. Especially if that "thing" is me. I don't believe that boiling my nature down to just a couple of elements is going to be useful to their ability to predict my behaviour or plan ahead for me. So if I just let people jump into the deep end of constructing gender: so? (And if people want to attack me or my community for their inability to understand us? Well I have a baseball bat and a bone to pick with them.)
Which brings us to reality testing.
It is healthy to know when your beliefs about the world are steering you wrong so that you can change them, ( yes? )
