my old-ass dad brought up wanting to buy a tesla last night. he’s been anti-electric vehicles for literal years because that’s what the rest of his hive mind told him to be.
the heel turn would be funny if it wasn’t so depressing. i’m lucky he didn’t give a shit about parenting when i was a kid.
nailed it, chef’s kiss, got it in one.
for me the distinction is important bc even the idea of having a gender preference is really foreign to me. genitals and gender expression have nothing to do with whether you’re a shit person or not! i can’t even imagine a scenario in which i’m “turned off” by the way someone was born. OR MUCH WORSE, by the way they CHOOSE to find comfort and self-fulfillment via gender expression.
context: i got the ’tism and something like a nonbinary identity myself. i’ve been told those things do a lot to explain this perspective lmao
