I met an older guy through a running group (for context he’s gay from a small town and now in Austin and I am a lesbian) and we were chatting about all the bullshit that is going on in Texas right now and he listened but didn’t volunteer too much of his opinion except to sort of vaguely agree. We had a big group of queer women and the conversation went from the attacks on our trans brothers, sisters, and thothers, to the attacks on our bodily autonomy as people who are able to get pregnant.
lmao
I genuinely didn’t think about that conversation again except that he was a fun guy to hang out with so we exchanged numbers and made those after beers promises to hang out again. A week or so later he sends me a message asking if I want to go to a 5K supporting trans rights(of course I do) so we met up this morning for that. After the run, we went for brunch and he told me he has had that conversation in his heart since we met and he had spent the last 3 or 4 weeks unpacking his internal prejudices against trans folks and has stopped thinking about access to reproductive healthcare is an issue for women. He said he felt like his eyes have been opened and he has gone from a small “c” conservative to wanting to smash the fricking patriarchy. Just a reminder that these little conversations with people along the way are what pushes the arc of justice forward.
i think he's trying to frick her

he’s trying to frick her but i can’t think of anything less sexy than a man ”unpacking his internal prejudices”
!biofoids is there anything less sexy? potentially clubbed thumbs. discuss

This is the same kind of moid who tries to use the “walking his dog to pick up foids in public spaces” shtick because “foids love animals” and while I’m sure that works on some foids, a man trying to be “gentle” and “understanding” comes off as subversive male feminist energy to me

Yeah but if I already have a cute dog I'm not not trying to pick up chicks when I walk him, I'm just also walking him.

But I’m going to assume you’re a well-adjusted moid that views this as a tangential benefit to owning your
The moids I’m talking about are moids who explicitly get a dog for the foid attention and not the genuine love/companionship that comes with a pet (I’ve known a few moids that admit that shit )
