But also like... Isn't fixating on self betterment kind of toxic? Shouldn't it come a bit more naturally, a bit more forgiving?
I do not know.
Maybe I should create a side blog dedicated to my personal growth.... For motivation and accountability purposes....
Also, I'd like to add by saying something which has already been mentioned in notes I'm pretty sure, but specifically talking about the alt right thing it DOES give off the vibes that it's women's fault that men are going alt right and super mysoginistic. Def not saying op is going that far, but it's a primary reason why I'm confused about that bit considering alt right men and existing reactionary misoginy ARE the primary reason this is happening, definetely not "masculinity being demonised". If anything I kind of hear that a lot on the alt right side (again not trying to tie op to that).
Furthermore for the butch thing, I'm not sure who op is saying is objectifying butches a lot, it could be fellow lesbians for all I know (I'm a lesbian but not very present in the online lesbian space), but I feel like butches would be sexualised to hell and back and objectified not because of their masculinity but rather because they are GNC women (or women full stop).
My personal reasoning is that overall I don't really see men or masculine people be sexualises and objectified, and definetely not as much as women or feminine people (this includes feminine men BTW). So it feels like anything "related to women" (heavy quotation marks) is objectified, rather than masculinity itself. I think that's why in op's list butches are the only ones cited to have the objectification issue specifically(?) (from what I read, I could be wrong I'm kind of tired lol).
Me: hey there's a big issue with anti-masculinity in queer and leftist spaces. Trans fems, if they don't constantly perform hyperfemininity and aren't little and skinny and white, are demonised and people call them pedophiles because there's such a dislike of any association with masculinity. Trans mascs are told they're "whiny MRAs" when they talk about the oppression they face. Masculine intersex people are erased or told they should just be more feminine if they don't want people to be scared of them for looking masculine. People act like marginalised men (queer men, trans men, men of colour, etc, intersex men) aren't actually marginalised because they're men. The vocal "all men literally ARE evil" rhetoric isn't actually venting when it's constant and public, it's harming marginalised men and is a contributing factor to teens and young cis (often but not always het) going down the alt-right pipeline, and is directly linked with trans people not transitioning or being too scared to transition because by becoming a man they are becoming "the enemy". There's the idea of "women +" or "women and nonbinary," which positions all nonbinary people as 'basically women' or affiliated with femininity, and in practice ends up pushing away anyone who appears or identifies with masculinity, regardless of their gender identity. Butches are treated as if they're just sex toys, or that they're scary and dangerous because of their masc presentation. This is actually a huge, pervasive issue that is further hurting already marginalised people AND is pushing potential allies away because it's making them feel bad for something they can't control (being men.)
Dumbasses: lol op thinks cis men are oppressed by minorities
While I can agree with some points, I genuinely don't see how masculinity being "demonised" is making ppl go alt right? I'm not trying to be a contrarion or attack anyone I'm just genuinely curious to understand that reasoning! :3

might make a side blog entirely dedicated to random text posts. pieces of my unintelligible thoughts, you could say.
When you've been clocked as an anon (very easy thing to do in hindsight) and followed so now your very-not-up-to-date-with-your-interests blog with random reblogs is weirdly exposed
(to whom it may concern (if you do see this): hi! Thanks for reminding me that I need to overhaul this thing lol)
does anyone have access to that masterpost of useful things women aren’t usually taught by our families, i.e. car repairs and maintenance? i SWEAR this exists somewhere and i don’t know how to go about finding it.
Some poor suffering gobs!!

June 13th update. Please don't skip.I don't want to lose my sister to the foster care system. share please. (Black lives matter)
I am taking care of my 7 year old sister. I don't want to lose her again in the foster system. Due to her parents being in jail and doing drugs. I really need help keeping her housed and making I have transportation for her. I have the rest of this month to come up with the rent out I will be kicked out. I need help getting car parts as well. please if you have anything to spare please donate. please do it for my little sister. I'm mentally drained by how stress I am. I'm not sure if i can throw her a birthday party this month due to everything being so high in prices. Thank you to those who have donated. we are almost to the goal. keep sharing!!!

I started with succulents like everyone else but tbh orchids are rapidly becoming my plant blorbos. Everyone takes care of them wrong and it's not your FAULT because the care instructions that come with them are!! Incorrect!!! If you do what they say then your orchid will die!!!! If you give them the right environment they're SO easy. They're such easy plants to grow. They have been UNFAIRLY SLANDERED by a MISINFORMATION campaign. They don't deserve this.
When you've scrolled through someone's blog for a while and liked some posts and now they follow you: HI HELLO?? ???!!!! Jumpscare /lh
