I’m seeing some posts going around re: Asian men and/or Asian masculinity

I have such an incredibly complex relationship to this.

I cannot even express

just how much damage the

intersection between

Asian men’s demasculinization, transmisogyny, white supremacy, femmephobia

has done to my life.

A large portion of this shit

is why i’m the ruin of a human being i am today

(I was once proudly confident and able to express my gender – at that point hard femme i guess –

until that intersection of -isms

mixed in with mental health problems – results from a shitty, neglectful and abusive childhood –

conspired to make me internalize so much shit

that i systematically destroyed everything

I loved about myself)
