Some time ago, I was seeing a post online about “walking on eggshells” and how people were annoyed at this, and it made me think a little. I always try my best to be a respectful and decent person, but when the matter is trans people I do get a bit nervous (I’m an introvert, by the way. I’m already a bit nervous by default). How can I be sure that I’m not offending someone while also not looking so worried about it?
Sorry I’m in a bad mood today. You can’t make sure not to insult/assault somebody, because even when you act in best faith, somebody can come along, interpret your actions totally different, and accuse you of something.
We need to care less about all of the bullshit that other people allege us with and listen more to what we think is right ourselves.
sorry for the rant. just had a bad day.
Okay, so, sorry if this bothers you, but, it’s been a long while, and I just want to know, if it’s even possible to you to see this: how are you? Are things going better than when you wrote this, or are the times still feeling difficult? Either way, I just hope you’re okay.
It’s okay. We all have bad days sometimes.
