@El'endiaStarman It was hard to read. Like a masochist, how could any man continue to put up with those nasty feminists constantly hating on men? When I kept seeing "are these my people", I just kept saying "eff those b----es! Stop hating yourself."
I can't say it was illuminating. Nothing about what it means to feel a gender was explained. The author kept saying things like wendy in a nightgown, and shaving legs. Is that what makes one feel like a woman?
Not to denigrate a large portion of it, but people tend to romanticize childhood fantasies. Praying on a star, literally? Honestly, I don't believe it.
And the allusions to what he studied in college, gender studies and that absurd crap? I'm thinking, "no wonder you hate yourself". That's all designed to make you hate men and families and fathers, etc.
And then when you're feeling sympathy for all his self-loathing, you read the comments and see he's just as bitchy as those feminists he mentions.
To some extent, I agree. It's hard to quantify what is and isn't an identity. But I don't think ineffable is right. The must be something we can say about our identities.
So what's an Australian? It's at least related to Australia, the land mass. That's quantifiable. Generally, we expect it to be related to proximity to Australia, whether you live there, were born there, or have heritage there.
So what's a man? Really, what do we say here? I have my own ideas, but I don't think it's ineffable.
