You don't have to be a man
and to this day I have no idea how the world sees me
the weird looks are just normal to me
I'm surprised when I realize it is not normal for others
to this day I have no idea how the world perceives me
the weird looks are simply normal to me
I'm surprised when I realize that it is not normal for others
to be looked at, to be othered
I don't even know why people look at me like this - is it the gender, the mask, the bare feet, the nerdiness, or the piercings and tattoos?
people say they care a lot for the first impression they make upon others
and I just have no way to know what exact part of me is weirding them out on first glance
I can't even tell why they look at me like this - is it the gender, the mask, the bare feet, the nerdiness, or the bad tattoos?
people say they care a lot about the first impression they make upon others
but how am I supposed to tell which exact part of me is weirding them out on their first glance
I stopped caring a long time ago
I argued with people about constructivism for very long
and it's hard for me to accept when I'm wrong
because my whole life people assumed my gender doesn't exist
because
my whole life people simply assumed my gender doesn't exist
and every time I questioned their world
it felt like I had to defend my existence
so no surprise I fight to tooth and nail even in harmless discussions
that's why I fight to tooth and nail even in harmless discussions
because such a harmless thing as not understanding the world as constructed by intersubjective discoursive actions
translated to me as not understanding me as I am
tells me you're not taking me serious as I am
I think they don't understand either what they hate about me
I think they don't understand either what part of me bothers them
just as I feel attacked by their basic world view
they feel threatened by my identity, it undermines theirs
because all the violence we do to ourselves to fit in with society
I don't hide it, I turn my insides out
and this revolutionary act
threatens the hard-earned peace they made with patriarchy
the concessions they made to normal society,
threatens the hard-earned peace they made with patriarchy,
the concessions they made to normal society.
the parts of themselves which they supressed
urge to come out as they see
how needlessly they were sacrificed
