  • the exact same thing has happened to me.

    went to school and the general social narrative was that “men are all bad people, we should avoid them altogether”, which, of course, is discrimination. The consequence is that you mostly intimidate sensitive guys that way, the guys that aren’t actually a problem. It definitely leads to a lot of mental health issues for young men, especially (later) mtf ones (as i’ve observed).

    What we can do about this, I think, is the general strategies against discrimination (point it out, talk about it, etc.) and ask questions such as “she may be offended if i ask her out, but she also may be offended if i don’t ask her out” (girl not feeling pretty, wanting/needing attention, etc.).







  • Animals sometimes have very weird, individual behavior. You can’t just make any general rule what this specific bird was doing to you. Probably it wanted to communicate with you, tell you something. Maybe you should have observed it a bit, maybe it would have had something to show you, like maybe in the bush that it was coming from.
