Do you also get the most incredulous faces? Like WHOA I AM A MAN YOU SEE ME RIGHT?

That’s true of just...SO many things. If you want to change minds and perspectives, derision and mockery toward those who are maybe just now kinda coming around to understanding your POV is suuuuuuuper counter-productive.

As someone who has worked with survivors of domestic violence and as someone who is below the poverty line (because I chose a career that works with survivors of domestic violence), these articles feel like such a heavy “should” that so many can't accomplish.
