I feel the same, ugh, I swear it's so horrific that he did that it makes me sick. I feel so bad cause I had a funny feeling about it and I just didn't say anything cause I was trying to be a good friend, I failed. :< *hugs*

Awh well don't cry then if you don't wanna cry, we can talk about something else, like House of the Scorpion (I'm bad at changing the subject....or very very good at it depending on whether or not the subject is house of the scorpion.)

Yeah, that's some ******** s**t that you know who would have said, no ******** doubt. I'm still raging to know that he did that. *hugs* ;___; I don't know WHAT i would have done if I knew.

And yeah, some family members are butthurt over things that (to me) don't make sense like that. Like me changing my first name...a lot of my family got weird over that

Blurred Lines...I mean...the song itself is bad. But the live performance made it seem more real and kinda actually triggered me wtf @_@ halp. I feel dirty.

Yeah, and it's not like I'm 100% opposed to dating a trans-girl, I just have never found one attractive that I can think of, I'd be open to it I guess. xD

Oh god why did they disown you? O-O

I've honestly never watched that performance
Now that I have I SEE WHAT THE BIG DEAL WAS WOW she really did pretty much just use a bunch of black girls as props I thought/hoped it would have been slightly different from that hghgal

I guess I think the main thing is, I'm not as attracted to nonbinary genders. I think I maybe have a fetish for binary genders.....? But I also sometimes have exceptions, it's just rare, I think I'm probably making myself feel bad about it for no reason but at the same time I don't wanna just dismiss it and not at least try to work on my views there. Idk....

That's awesome, whatcha gonna do? I'm working all through it. ~_~

Anyway, yeah I know what you mean, I've had my own issues dealing with privilege. To be honest (and anyone who's reading this needs to leave me alone cause I'm trying) I have an issue with my attraction to only cis girls and not having as much attraction to trans girls and tending to be less attracted if I find out they're trans...(I'm disgusting) I guess maybe I just like v****a, but I like cis guys, so I don't know man, I am struggling with a lot of things and I don't know if there's a nice way to state what I am and am not attracted to for those reasons. @_@ I Don't know if it needs to change or what...

YES it's a very good book, and it has a sequel now so this is a great time to read it. Muahahah.

I've seen cultural appropriate bingo, and I've also seen fandom ******** bingo (I only have one square on fandom ******** bingo that I'm guilty of. I'm not kidding. That's how bad this stuff is, it's worse than ME.) It's hilarious as ********.

Dude ******** that s**t, miley cyrus isn't twerking. I can twerk better than her and I can't even DANCE. (At all. I really can't dance. Ever. No. I can't twerk. Just better than her.) Twerking is actually really awesome and hot, but whatever miley's doing is creepy. And yeah, the really bad part about it is how people are acting like she invented it ffs.

I know, I used to have a lot of that guilt crap as well, it's been hard to get rid of the non-constructive misery and wallowing about having privilege and stuff. @_@; Especially when you're not neurotypical, I think it's even harder in some ways (and in other ways a LOT easier. I think it's easier to shift your views to be good at heart, harder to handle criticism, if you feel me? At least in my experience.) Also a lot of intersectionality kind of still excludes non-neurotypicals, sadly. @_@ Another thing that goes un-acknowledged.

I know what you mean. Like, I like Fani. She was an extremely minor character, but it wasn't like "She was black and African and stuff. Lol. Her husband hated her cause he was racist. Lol. She was racist too. Lol." It was like She was just a random cynical b***h. it was funny. I loved her and I made her my own character (yeah ok i wrote like a novel about a chaaracter in HOTS that had THREE LINES, WHAT OF IT)
but yeah, Nancy Farmer does a pretty good job at representation, she's white, but most of her characters are not, and they're all REALLY well developed and diverse, almost no trace of stereotypes. I dunno if you ever read HOTS, but it was a great book for me and so few have compared since.

...that guy. oh god. I didn't go to any halloween parties and thank goodness, because before this year, I really didn't know s**t about cultural appropriation. Now that I know, I just don't think i can handle halloween anymore because there are so many iidddiiiiiooooots.

FML on that s**t
Oh god I hate it, it's like--also--ugh! It's like they don't want good guys to be black, and they don't want villans to be black, and then--like--it kinda seems like everyone just wants everyone to be white.

I've been RPing as black characters for years, and honestly, in that sense, I can't imagine what it would be like to look black in real life, I get so much s**t in the RP world that it's CLEAR there is still a problem. And people say it's "just RP"--well, ask a black person to see if they experience the same s**t, they probably do. (Can't really say, I'm part black but I really don't look it, I guess I've only had a few times when people even noticed I wasn't white and it wasn't like they were assholes about it, which is lucky. I def have passing privilege and I acknowledge that now)

EXACTLY. All that stuff is important, definitely-- I know, I learned so much and realized I was being REALLY gross to certain bisexual girls, i.e. telling them that they weren't really bi because they preferred men. But bisexuals CAN have a preference and they still need to be at least recognized as bisexual, etc. And I also realized a lot of things about white privilege that just blew my mind, like the first time I found a blog about racism and stuff it kinda blew my mind how engrained it really is with society. And that brings me back to how the character I RP as, Fani, has been whitewashed by other House of the Scorpion fans-- like they say "Oh she could have been light skinned latina," but she's the president of Nigeria's daughter...
Yeah, she technically could have been. But don't fault me for imagining her as a black African for ******** sakes!

Lol same tho. About hating how you have to say "feminism benefits men lolol!" That almost negates the point of it-- but it's true! Feminism makes society better, as a whole. also intersectinality is important too.

Sadly that fear of saying something wrong for me is real, I simply am so outgoing because it's hard to change how I am? @.@ outside of the excessive mimicking I sometimes do that I hope no one notices. I picked up on someone's weird noise that they make sometimes and I do it myself now omg.

But yeah, people love to just stop taking to me forever lolol. @.@ I have people make plans with me then say "oops I got drunk and forgot". Like a blatant lack of giving a ********.

Exactly, I'm definitely not a female supremacist or anything either. xD

It's awesome you made friends! But sadly they wouldn't like me...xD I'm a little bit too much for most awkward/nerdy people unless they're also...really outgoing and never shut up? I generally just freak people out XD

I'm trying to be happy but I have a friend here who I sometimes hang out with (she's the only one) and she's just so pretty and she has a boyfriend and it really makes me upset, ugh. And then the fact that every time I try with anyone else they're like... Before I even get near them physically they suddenly realize they're more on the straight side of the bi spectrum.

And I don't really mean like, militant feminism or anything. I just mean that I openly challenge societal norms, and if someone says something like "Well you're a girl, of course you like ___" or something I just rant for 2 days on why that's a shitty thing to say and it's not true. I'm basically just trying to be a better person every day.

Psh, I haven't hung out with a friend in like 2 months. And I've tried. They ditch me last second.

I'm so lazy, I haven't beaten the elite four...xD Actually, honestly, I've just been busy with work and sleeping a whole lot cause I'm depressed, you know how it goes. ~_~ Too depressed to play video games...wow.

I'm glad you, too, have gotten more into feminism in the past few years. I'm SO hardcore on it sometimes it makes me want to just ragequit the world. -_- (The word ragequit was in my brain ebfore I saw you typed it, we're on the same wavelength right now wow)

Aww I never got animal crossing, but here is my friend code. I'll be adding you right now. XD 5429-8111-5270
