Im gonna discuss this with my therapist but that shits like a week out already so i am just curious if anyone else decided to deflect/repress in this manner

Like, i did digitial self harm by reading 'misandrist' stuff and TERF brainworm shit on tumblr like, every other day from 2020-2024 and i even had accounts banned from different websites from how vitriolic i was about this

And like, i couldnt even bring myself to actually hate men i just hate being one, yaknow? But that wasnt allowed (by my brain) because i shut myself into the closet after a botched fkrst coming out attempt which i am just now trying again 6 years later

Not like that, but i had my own version of Inexplicable Feminist Agenda where i spend a lot of time arguing with incels online because something about their misogyny ticked me the fuck off
