Nice. Now my gender issues are front and center over there. an apparently me having gender issues is all so I can ID as an oppressed group.

Hey, it's why I transitioned...

... or so I read somewhere.

because, like, it's so cool to be oppressed.

and I don't even ID as trans, I just feel between genders. I'm not, like, co-opting trans oppression, which is how they seem to be slamming me. I just have conflict based on not feeling particularly female, but not feeling male enough to be trans.

Yeah, I didn't think you did (and I don't think your self ID is any kind of appropriation). It sounds like you made the best choice to disengage. It's too bad they think they're entitled to keep stalking you once you've left. :(

Sympathies for having assholes around.

well, it's my own fault for going ack there this week. I posted there auot the library drama from the other night, and they decided to ring up every mistake I have ever posted about, there or elsewhere. I was right to have stopped hanging out there.

Wait. You went there for SUPPORT and this happened?

WOW.

Someone tried to do this to me on gimp_vent, but everyone shouted her down. I am so sorry.

[maevele.livejournal.com]

not for support, i posted the same question there as here, concerning whether the librarian was right to scold my toddler, to see if i was overreacting.

I haven't gone there for support in years.

Being oppressed brings joy to my day every day.

I've never understood why you have to be one or the other anyway. Life is full of wonderful grey areas.

[dreadnot.livejournal.com]

[maevele.livejournal.com]

[maevele.livejournal.com]
