that’s why if you are a mother of teenage boys in places like ours, you have to constantly be a threat. i learned it the hard way. i am hated by most queer folks in our community because i refuse for
my children to be victims. i am a mother before i am anything and anyone else
something about upper-middle-class lesbians rejecting the identity “tomboy” bc its too “mannish” and unattractive (some would even say its not a valid lesbian identity) choosing instead a “conventional”/ “elegant” androgyny (soft masc) that has bigger appeal today
@taylorlumillae Exactly 😭 But hopefully we'll be less harder on ourselves 🤍🤍 I've been trying to extend the same grace i give others to myself even tho it's hard. One step at a time yeas (im cwn and carrying mo ran on my back as i go up 3799 steps)
@taylorlumillae RT. Been following the "do things scared/angry/sad/unprepared" etc but to a perfectionist freak like me it's hard to push through sometimes
The only reason i believe in mediums/tarot card readers is cos my grandma used to be one and she had this one client whose loved one's death she accurately predicted and she got so traumatized she stopped reading since then
