There are bigger things happening right now, and this isn’t particularly important to me. This is just for people who talk to me regularly/casually, want to talk to me, refer to me in conversations, or anyone vaguely interested.

Around the middle to end of last year was when I realized that the patriarchal monogamous nuclear family that capitalism pushes on everyone isn’t really for me.

Lately I’ve felt the same for the concept of gender, gender norms and (especially) the binary that is pushed on, specifically for the purpose of division of labor between the nuclear cishet family (which effectively functions as private property) and to exploit the woman to an even greater extent.

So yeah, fuck it.

Pronouns for now are they/he. Will move on to they/them once I feel more comfortable.

Don’t give this too much importance anyway, I’d rather you read Wretched of the Earth instead to get a better understanding of what’s going on.

you can message me if you want a pdf.

BYE!

sorry, it just reminded me of this haha ^^; good luck with your journey though!!!

Good for you comrade! I feel the similarly. I never strongly identified with being a “boy,” so it wasn’t a hard step to say I’m non-binary. We must abolish gender. There is no irrelevant issue in an interconnected world.

Good to hear that ❤️

I feel the same way, even though coming from the other end; I never felt like a “girl” I was told (or thought) I should be.

Don’t think posting this is a distraction. Even if it isn’t important to you, realizing it and making real changes through your day-to-day social interaction is an important and meaningful action in itself.

Now go finish Wretched of the Earth ❤️

I binged an audiobook of Wretched of the Earth and should probably re-read it.
