I would bet that the girls/women that said "lol look at the loser and his videogames" aren't the same girls/women who said any of the other stuff as time passed.

Hey Kyle,

I never got why it mattered, like why do people want questions like "What are you?" validated anyways? What is my answer going to do for you? How does knowing what my ethnicity is necessary to you getting to know me?

"Again, this is othering, making a person feel like they need to explain why they look the way they do."

Everyone objecting to this article is generalizing it way past what it is actually saying. Even though it has helpful bold headlines.
