wanting it both ways

“…part of what’s exciting about boys! singing! is that boys aren’t ~supposed~ to sing/be creative/have feelings, which is allegedly sad or some shit but ACTUALLY it just means that when they do they are applauded like a toddler going pee-pee in the potty while girls have to actually like, be impressive to even get a second look, and some people are never even going to give them a first no matter how good they are, so i am kind of over being sad about this particular dudely plight.”

YUP. Never want to hear about how boys aren’t allowed to FEEEEEL ever again. Because first of all boys are allowed to feel anger and I would trade in all my other emotions for clean access to that one, EASY. But also, christ, it’s so BRAVE when boys do x conventionally feminine thing, let’s all celebrate it and overlook that that’s one more space where women are going to get pushed out or ignored or told to be quiet when important stuff is happening.
